Extra large Gemstones classic Tennis necklace, made from 925 Sterling Silver and white Cubic Zirconia Crystals.
Always in fashion, the jewelry style seems to be everywhere these days. But how did an eternity strand of diamonds come to be so ubiquitously thought of as a 'tennis bracelet'? Tennis player Chris Evert is to credit.
The tennis championships in question? The 1987 U.S. Open of course. The world class professional tennis player Evert was in the midst of a highly competitive match during which her string diamonds fell off her wrist, prompting the champion to request a pause for play so she could look for the jewels. From then on, the name tennis bracelet was tied to Evert.
