What Makes an Emerald Tennis Necklace So Special?

What to Keep in Mind when Buying an Emerald Tennis Necklace?

Diamond Quality & Precious Metal Type

The quality of the emerald cut diamonds is of utmost importance when choosing an emerald tennis necklace. Your necklace should feature high-quality emerald diamonds of a high color and clarity grade, have minimal inclusions, and be crafted with a precious metal ranging from platinum or white, rose, or yellow gold.

The emerald diamonds should be of a high clarity grade simply because of the stone's step-cut shape and large table surface area. The shape and table surface area require the stone to have minimal inclusions to create wondrous flashes of light. Hence, it would be best to focus on obtaining a stone of high clarity grade. The same goes for its color grade, as its open facets prominently showcase the diamond's color. Choosing diamond grades between D to G is recommended when choosing emerald diamonds for your emerald tennis necklace. Both high color and clarity grades ensure you own an emerald tennis necklace with diamonds that have an eye-clean appearance.

The type of metal you choose depends on the style you're looking for. Platinum is a rarer metal than gold. As for the gold variants, white gold is the most modern and popular choice, priced better than platinum with almost the same look. Rose is more for those who love expressing their feminine side, and yellow gold is a traditional choice that adds an interesting contrast to your emerald diamond tennis necklace.

At Friendly Diamonds, we offer emerald tennis necklaces crafted with high quality lab diamonds available in all the precious metal types mentioned above.

Setting

It is important to consider the setting used for your emerald tennis necklace. While it does come down to preference, we recommend picking an emerald tennis necklace with a classic prong setting to let more light enter the emerald diamonds, thus enhancing the overall sparkle. However, you may choose to go with another setting for your emerald cuts by opting for Friendly Diamonds’ bespoke jewelry experience that allows you to customize your tennis necklace from scratch.

Length

You must consider the length of your emerald tennis necklace. These diamond embellished necklaces come in varied lengths, giving you the opportunity to choose a length that suits you best. Shorter necklaces ranging from 14 to 16 inches make great layering picks as they are worn closer to the neckline. Longer necklaces ranging from 18 to 20 inches are more statement-making pieces as they sit further from the neckline, hanging towards the chest. It all depends on your styling preference and body type when picking your emerald tennis necklace length.

Overall Design

The overall design and style of the emerald tennis necklace you pick represent your personal style. It should complement your wardrobe and match your attire so that you have a complete and balanced look. We always recommend choosing simple and classic emerald tennis necklace designs as they are the perfect match for everyday wear.
