Diamond Tennis Necklaces in Atlanta
A diamond tennis necklace is a single continuous line of individually set diamonds on a flexible chain. Because there is no pendant and no break in the pattern, it reads as one unbroken ribbon of light around the collarbone — which is why it is the piece most people picture when they picture a diamond necklace. In supplier catalogs the same design is usually listed as a line necklace; the two terms mean the same thing.
The tennis necklaces we carry are 14K and 18K gold, available in white, yellow and rose, with total diamond weights running from roughly 3 carats up to about 130 carats. Most are lab-grown diamond and made to order, with a smaller number set with natural diamonds. Prices, metal colors and diamond weights are shown per piece in the grid above and read live from our catalog, so nothing here is an estimate.
A tennis necklace is a common anniversary, milestone-birthday and graduation gift, and it is one of the easier fine-jewelry pieces to wear repeatedly — it layers under a collar, sits flat under a neckline, and does not compete with earrings. See also our matching tennis bracelets, which run in the same metals and diamond types.
Total carat weight, gold karat and necklace length all go deeper than fits on this page. Our Carat Sizes guide shows how the same total carat weight looks different across studs, pendants and tennis jewelry. Our Gold Karats guide explains the durability tradeoff between 14K and 18K gold — both of which we carry across our tennis necklaces. And our Necklace Lengths guide charts how a chain sits at each length from 14 to 30 inches.
A few specifics about the tennis necklaces we carry:
- 14K and 18K white gold are popular choices among our tennis necklaces because the metal disappears against the stones. Yellow and rose gold frame each stone instead. All three colors are available across the full range of carat weights and both karats.
- 16 inch sits at the base of the throat; 16½ and 18 inch fall at or just below the collarbone; 20 inch sits lower on the chest; our longest lab-grown styles run to 24 inch for a deeper drape. The adjustable 15–18 inch style wears short or long, useful as a gift when you are unsure of the fit.
- Fit. A tennis necklace should sit snugly — a loose one rotates and turns the diamonds inward instead of outward.
Lab-Grown and Natural Diamond
Lab-grown diamond tennis necklaces make up the vast majority of this range, and every one of them is made to order. A lab-grown diamond is a real diamond — same crystal structure, same hardness, same appearance under magnification — grown rather than mined, and it costs considerably less per carat. On a piece that needs dozens of matched stones, that difference compounds: it is why the highest total weights we carry are lab-grown, and why a lab-grown necklace can be several times the carat weight of a natural one at a comparable price.
A small number of natural diamond tennis necklaces are here too, for buyers who specifically want a mined stone. Neither is a compromise on quality — the choice is about what you value. Use the stone-type filter above to see one or the other on its own.
