Alla auktioner / Smycken & ädelstenar / Vintage Tennis Bracelet with 6.65 ct Diamonds in Platinum, England c. 1960
Do you know why bracelets like this one are called "tennis bracelets"? It's thanks to an incident during a tennis match at the US Open. Here, Chris Evert lost her diamond-studded Rivière bracelet during a match, and the match was interrupted specifically so that she could retrieve her beloved piece of jewellery. This was the birth of the tennis bracelet, which has gone down in jewelry history under this name since the tennis event in 1987. Of course, tennis bracelets already existed before the 1987 tennis match; they were particularly popular at the beginning of the 20th century. At that time, however, they were still very aptly called rivière bracelets. The French word "rivière" means "river" and describes the flowing appearance of this piece of jewellery. As the individually set gemstones are held in place by movable elements made of precious metal, a tennis bracelet adapts beautifully to the shape of the wrist. This luxurious piece dates from around 1960. 31 precious brilliant-cut diamonds of a radiant white color are set in platinum and brought together to create an elegant design. Each of the chain elements is flexibly connected to the next, making the bracelet wonderfully soft and easy to wear on the wrist. The precious gemstone setting with a total weight of around 6.65 carats radiates a firework of sparkling light reflections in its carré settings. The design language and workmanship of the band are still very much associated with the Art Deco style of the interwar period, even if the cuts of the diamonds suggest that it was created after the Second World War. We therefore assume that the band was created in the years around 1960. We discovered this timeless piece of jewellery in the south of England.
