Long step-cut facets catch the light in clean flashes, like light moving across a row of polished mirrors, and the gold frames line them up in perfect Art Deco rhythm. Our most refined statement tennis bracelet, set by hand in our Woodside, Queens workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is an emerald cut tennis bracelet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn emerald cut is a rectangular diamond with clipped corners and long, parallel step facets running down its face. Instead of the busy sparkle of a round brilliant, it shows broad, mirror-like flashes and a deep, glassy clarity often called a hall of mirrors. In a tennis bracelet, a row of emerald cuts reads calm, architectural and unmistakably expensive: the cut favored for its elegance rather than its glitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy a bezel setting for emerald cut diamonds?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bezel follows the emerald cut's exact outline, straight sides and clipped corners included, so every stone sits in a sharp, octagonal frame of gold. That frame protects the corners, which are the most exposed part of the stone, and it gives the bracelet its crisp, tailored, Art Deco look. With no prongs at all, nothing interrupts the long facets, and there is nothing to snag on sweaters, silk or hair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNorth-south: why do the stones stand upright?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach emerald cut is set with its long side running across the wrist rather than along the bracelet. Standing the rectangles upright shows off their full length, widens the bracelet, and turns it into a row of gold-framed bars of light, like a line of miniature solitaires shoulder to shoulder. It is the orientation that gives the bracelet its bold, statement presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does it look on the wrist?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eClean, graphic and luminous. The rectangles line up with almost no gap between them, so the bracelet reads as a continuous band of light divided by fine gold lines. Instead of twinkling, the stones flash in broad sheets as the wrist turns, which is what makes emerald cuts look so quietly expensive. Worn alone it carries a whole look; stacked with a round tennis bracelet, the contrast of rectangles and circles is striking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEmerald cut or princess cut: what is the difference?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBoth are angular, but they sparkle differently. A princess cut is square and brilliant-cut, with lots of small, bright flashes. An emerald cut is rectangular and step-cut, with long, mirror-like facets and a calmer, deeper glow. Choose princess for maximum sparkle and a tiled look; choose emerald cut for elegance, length and that unmistakable Art Deco hall-of-mirrors effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy does diamond quality matter more in an emerald cut?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStep facets are open and transparent, so they show color and clarity far more than brilliant cuts, which hide small flaws in their sparkle. That is why every stone here is a Lab-Grown Diamond graded D to F in color and VS clarity or better: colorless, bright white, and eye-clean, so each rectangle looks like clear water in its gold frame. The bracelet carries 5.5 carats total weight on the 7-inch length; the 6-inch and 6.5-inch bracelets use the same stone size with proportionally fewer stones, so their total carat weight is slightly lower. Lab-Grown Diamonds are real diamonds, with the same carbon crystal, hardness and fire as mined diamonds. The individual stones are not lab-graded, so the bracelet arrives without an IGI report.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhite gold or yellow gold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 14K yellow gold each emerald cut sits in a warm, polished octagon, the most vintage, Art Deco version of the design. In 14K white gold the frames blend into the stones for a cool, icy band that reads as almost pure diamond. Both are solid 14K gold through every link and every bezel, never plated and never hollow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs it comfortable enough to wear every day?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Fully bezel-set stones have no prongs to snag, and the smooth gold frames slide over sleeves and desks. Every link is hinged so the bracelet drapes and rolls with the wrist, and it closes with a box clasp that clicks shut, backed by a safety latch on each side. The clasp and both latches all have to give way before the bracelet can open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich length should I choose: 6, 6.5, or 7 inches?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeasure the wrist just above the wrist bone with a soft tape or a strip of paper, then add about half an inch so the bracelet moves without sliding over the hand. A 5.5-inch wrist wears the 6-inch, a 6-inch wrist the 6.5-inch, and a 6.5-inch wrist the 7-inch. With larger stones, a slightly looser fit lets each rectangle sit flat and show its full face. Need a longer length? Ask, and it will be built to measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is it made, and how long does it take?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery emerald cut bezel tennis bracelet is made to order in Queens, NYC by Dimitrios Koukoulis, with no warehouse and no mass production. Each octagonal bezel is fitted to its stone, the gold is pushed and burnished evenly along the straight sides and around each clipped corner, and every link is aligned so the rectangles sit perfectly straight before the clasp is fitted and tested. Production takes 10 to 15 business days, and the finished bracelet ships fully insured in a Black Pearl of Queens pouch. Standard lengths are covered by our 14-day return policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompare the other tennis bracelet styles\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWant square stones with more sparkle?
