STEP 1 - Choose Tennis Bracelet Design

General speaking, Tennis Bracelet Design can be divided into THREE categories , namely 3 prongs, 4 prongs ( Most Common one! ) and Illusion. So what are they exactly? Well, let me show your the relevant photo directly and you will understand the differences. 3 Prongs

This is a 3 Prongs tennis bracelet, normally 3 Prongs only got this option and you can easily compare the design from store to store.

4 Prongs

These two are standard 4 Prongs design, you can see the difference of these 4 Prongs - the upper one is more transparent with 4 Prongs really holding the stones while the below one is more like a 4 Prongs with one extra bottom to hold the stones. It really depends on the customer to choose which design they want. Illusion ( My personal preference for a diamond tennis bracelet! )

Illusion setting makes you feel like the diamond is bigger than its actual size. Actually what does the magic is the setting - which is accomplished by a ring of metal surrounding the girdle of the diamond that is often bright cut. This is my top favourite because it's always the most shinning one with the optimal pricing. Step 2 - Choose your diamond quality We all know the more your pay, the better you get, but from our perspective ( really from a perspective of a Jeweller only ), color does most of the job for a shinning diamond tennis bracelet. Very often a economical tennis bracelet uses low color diamond ( those below H ) with low clarity ( those below I quality ), which makes the tennis bracelet look dark and yellowish. If you have a tight budget, our recommendation is always going for better color with maybe SI quality stones. If you do not consider the "store of value" concept of a diamond tennis bracelet, lab grown is the way to go. Step 3 - Step away from Strong Light

Please, avoid checking diamond tennis bracelet under strong indoor light - which prevents you from checking the quality and color of the diamonds. My advice is always simple, ask yourself 1. whether the bracelet looks white; 2. whether the diamond looks like having black spot. These two questions are the key to checking a tennis bracelet.
