Everything about tennis bracelets at Manich
A tennis bracelet is an unbroken line of uniform, brilliant-cut diamonds set in a flexible gold rail – a classic that is worn every day for decades. Below we have gathered what you should know before choosing yours: the name, the material, the size and the questions our customers ask most often.
What is a tennis bracelet, and why is it called that?
A tennis bracelet is a bracelet with a continuous line of uniform diamonds, set closely in a flexible rail so that it follows the movement of the wrist. The name comes from an episode at the 1987 US Open, when tennis player Chris Evert stopped the match to look for her diamond bracelet, which had fallen off during a rally. The story was repeated so many times in the TV broadcast that this type of bracelet has since been known as a "tennis bracelet" around the world.
Natural or lab-grown diamonds?
At Manich you can choose between two types of diamonds that are chemically, physically and optically identical – the difference lies in origin and price. Our lab-grown diamonds are IGI-certified, and for every piece we also issue a personal jewellery certificate with insurance valuation, issued by jeweller Erik Manich, GIA-trained certified diamond grader (Graduate Gemologist).
Which length should you choose?
The standard length is 18 cm, which fits most people. Measure the circumference of your wrist with a tape measure just above the wrist bone and add 1–2 cm, so the bracelet falls softly without being tight. We also make the bracelet in your exact length.

How do you close and fasten a tennis bracelet?
A tennis bracelet is closed with a safety clasp that prevents it from opening by accident. Like most chain and link bracelets, fastening it usually takes two hands or help from someone else. The exact clasp type is stated in each product description – do contact us if you are unsure before buying.

The standard length is 18 cm and fits most people. Measure your wrist and add 1–2 cm for a softly draped fit. We can make the bracelet in your exact length.
What is the difference between natural and lab-grown diamonds?
They are chemically, physically and optically identical. Our lab-grown diamonds are IGI-certified, while natural diamonds have historically had better resale value and a rarity premium. Lab-grown diamonds typically cost 50–70% less.
