Tennis bracelets

[ Edited ]

Do you have any, are you wearing them?  I've been wearing mine all week. Think it was one I got at the Q a long time ago. Asscher cut.  Forget how it was spelled!! 

 

 

Thanks below for the proper spelling.  I changed it.

I've had many Diamonique ones that I wore 24/7.  They just last a year or so and break.  I think they twist and turn when you sleep in them and don't last long.  The links are held together by the thinest sliver of silver metal which breaks.

 

I have 6 or 7 with colored gemstones and a 14k Diamonique with which I'm more careful but I never wear them.  My taste and lifestyle have changed.

@qualitygal - I think you're talking about the Asscher cut.

 

I don't have any in that cut, but I have a lot of tennis bracelets.  Some DMQ, some gemstones, some costume.  I used to wear them a lot, but not so much anymore.

 

Right now it's winter in New England and I don't wear bracelets (or even necklaces).  I won't until the weather warms up and I'm not bundled up in layers of clothing!

 

(I've never had any break but then, I take my jewelry off at night.)

I have one, a Diamonique. It's a round stone 3.35 ct. set in silver. It is a very believable and very beautiful.  I got it on a clearance price. I don't wear if often and as soon as I come in I take it off. Would never sleep in it.

I have a diamond one that I've had for probably 20 years or so. The only time I take it off is to periodically clean it.

Yes and I have worn it for years.  Only have a 14K diamond one, none from QVC.  First piece I saved for and bought for myself.

I have my Mom's which was real diamonds and 14k.  I do wear it but only for special going out.  I should wear it more.  No point in letting it sit in a drawer!  It will be passed down to one of my kids.

I have a very nice one that belonged to my mother.  It makes me a bit nervous to wear it so I only do on special occasions.  I do have it insured but I don't like wearing expensive jewelry.

Like @Krimpette , I have a 14K & diamond tennis bracelet. It's a signature piece for me and I only remove it maybe once a year to have it professionally cleaned and inspected.
