History of Tennis Bracelets

In the later part of the 20th century, items like tennis bracelets made their debut. In the early days, the bracelet was a chain called an eternity bracelet, sometimes with a name engraved on it, such as the one Cesar Romero wore in the 1920’s. The name “tennis bracelet” however, was attributed to the famous 1987 US Open that Chris Evert halted, in order to retrieve her in line diamond bracelet, created by George Bedewi.

This bracelet immediately became popular and jewelers everywhere were creating the bracelet with in line diamonds–now known as the “tennis bracelet”– to supply the growing demand. No matter what they’re called, though, they are a timeless piece of elegance that will be handed down from generation to generation. They enhance the wrists of people, young and old; rich and not so rich.

There are bracelets that can cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars, and there are creations that can cost only dollars. No matter what your budget, you can find a tennis bracelet that suits your needs and will forever look graceful on your wrist.
