LIVE AUCTION #3 - TENNIS, ANYONE?
Dazzle them on the courts or anywhere with this 1 ct TDW Diamond Tennis Bracelet solid 14 ct yellow gold. It features a push clasp and safety. Size: 7 inches.
Did you know the term "tennis bracelet" originated after Chris Evert, arguably one of the most stylist tennis players on the professional circuit, lost a diamond bracelet during a match in the 1987 US Open. Evert asked officials to postpone her match until the bracelet had been found-all while viewers watched her televised search for the expensive bracelet. The accident sparked the desire for new diamond bracelets, causing a craze for what became affectionately known as "the tennis bracelet." Evert was certainly not the first to wear, or inspire others to wear, a flexible band of diamonds and gold around the wrist. In the 1920s, men and women were often found wearing lightweight "eternity bracelets," which would look to us today like the tennis bracelet.
KENTUCKY DERBY! You Won't Miss a Thing!
