In 2021, the most popular jewelry will definitely be a diamond tennis bracelet. The fashion for minimalism and modest jewelry is becoming a thing of the past, and the most logical manifestation of the new aesthetic becomes wrist jewelry with stones of the same size and the same cut. Also, tennis bracelets are the answer to the request of fashionistas for classic and luxurious jewelry that could be worn not only in the evening, but also during the day, combined with sneakers, hoodies and other trendy signs of the time.
The history of the tennis bracelet
The history of the tennis bracelet as a fashionable and multifunctional piece of jewelry began in 1987. Then, during the US Open match, a Cartier diamond bracelet flew off the hand of tennis player Chris Evert. The girl was so upset that she asked the judge to stop the game. The judge satisfied her request and the bracelet was found.
It must be said that the jewelry was a kind of talisman for the athlete. She wore it to every game, and after that match in an interview she said that then finding her mascot on the court was extremely important for her: Chris believed that without the bracelet, luck would have turned away from her. Since then, the bracelet, in which gems of the same size are arranged in a row, became known as "tennis".

As a rule, the base for diamonds is created in white gold, but there are also models in pink and yellow gold. This is done to achieve a dramatic contrast to colorless diamonds. Also in 2021 there will be many tennis bracelets with yellow diamonds, these are the stones that have been gaining popularity in recent months and promise to become the most sought after.
The main feature of tennis bracelets is, of course, the diamonds themselves. Stones must be absolutely identical in size and cut, excellent clarity and quality. And the main fashionable secret of a tennis bracelet is its universality.
This sparkling and attractive accessory looks equally impressive in elegant evening looks, and it looks harmonious with both an evening dress and sportswear. Bracelets look especially luxurious if you wear several pieces at once, mixing models of different sizes of diamonds and gold color.
