A tennis necklace, also referred to as an eternity necklace, is a full strand of diamonds or other gems that form a complete circle around the neck. This necklace style first became popular back in the 1980s and has stayed timeless through the years, often being styled by fashion moguls and celebrities worldwide. Tennis necklaces are often 16” to 20” in length and come in white gold or platinum metals, but you can occasionally find them in yellow or rose gold as well. They come in a variety of styles including tapered, graduated stones or with matching sized diamonds across the whole length of the necklace. Depending on your personal style, you can find tennis necklaces in ‘Y’ style pendant versions, chokers, or long, cascading strands with large center stones.
The tennis necklace can be dressed up for a formal red carpet event or worn as a classic, everyday accessory and can be worn by either men or women. The simple, easy look of a tennis necklace makes it the perfect accessory for wearing with a unique t-shirt and jeans, or with an evening gown and heels. Tennis necklaces provide a clean, modern look with the focus being on the gorgeous showcased diamonds.
