Which bracelet?

Which bracelet would you go for? Regular style tennis bracelet or one with alternate sized diamonds? There are very few bracelets with alternate sizes so maybe not a popular choice?

Whichever you like best. It's a personal choice. My preference is for the classic tennis style.

Holidayhell22 · 19/09/2024 19:37

I prefer the classic style.

mynameiscalypso · 19/09/2024 19:37

I prefer the first too.

TwinklyLightsAllNight · 19/09/2024 19:38

First

Pilotingmyownlife · 19/09/2024 19:39

First, but it's personal preference.

StormingNorman · 19/09/2024 19:41

I prefer the first one with all the diamonds the same size. My style is classic verging on boring though.

Go with whichever you like best - both will look beautiful.

TheYearOfSmallThings · 19/09/2024 19:42

If you're going for a classic stay classic, so the first one.

Shoesshoes87 · 19/09/2024 19:48

First one. ☝️

Motnight · 19/09/2024 20:08

First one, it's gorgeous 😍

RedPandaFluff · 19/09/2024 20:36

Oooooo I like the second one - it's really pretty and looks more delicate.

Isabelle70 · 20/09/2024 07:15

I like both and find the second one unusual.
For longevity I would go for the first one.
Ideally if I could find the second one in costume jewellery I could give it a test run..

The first one.

ABirdsEyeView · 20/09/2024 10:35

I think I'd go for the first too - I'd worry about the second one being fragile and snapping. Both are lovely though. I like a tennis bracelet with a proper clasp and not one that you tighten to fit.

Isabelle70 · 21/09/2024 15:48

I have gone ahead and ordered a £5 bracelet in the first style to give it a test run as it's going to be something I am going to wear on a day to day basis.
Fingers crossed I don't get a green wrist!
I have found one with a tulip style setting which I really like...

Oh the tulip setting is beautiful!

May I be very nosey and ask how much this one costs? I have a feeling I can but dream . . . !

Isabelle70 · 21/09/2024 22:00

@RedPandaFluff I like the fact it's different. I have a solitaire ring with a lotus flower setting so similar.
I haven't a clue on the price yet. I need to ask the jeweller once I make a decision on the size and style.

They're all very beautiful, and I love that you're going to wear it on a casual day-to-day basis Grin

Isabelle70 · 01/12/2024 07:10

@RedPandaFluff after thinking about the bracket for too many weeks, I have gone ahead and placed an order!
It will be my birthday and Christmas present to myself!

I think it depends on the size of your wrists. I have very small wrists so generally prefer daintier bracelets, but if you have larger wrists then the first one may look better.

You need to try them on.

RedPandaFluff · 01/12/2024 11:16

Yay - glad to hear it, @Isabelle70 - show us a pic of it on your wrist when you have it, make us all jealous Grin

SnoopySantaPaws · 01/12/2024 11:28

I like the first one most, but it's not for me!

Isabelle70 · 01/12/2024 14:41

I do have small wrists, 15cm which is small compared to family and friends. I did a trial run with a piece of costume jewellery and it was slightly too big which is good as the bracelet on order had smaller diamonds.
Only 3 weeks to wait as it's a custom order.

Isabelle70 · 25/01/2025 08:13

My bracelet arrived but it was not what I expected at all so it was returned.
After a lot of research and deliberation I went for this one. I really want to see the roundness of each diamond, I don't want to see a long straight line.
It's on order and only another 2 weeks to wait!

@Isabelle70 that's beautiful! Please can you link to where you purchased it from?

WinWhenTheyreSinging · 25/01/2025 08:33

Love the bezel set one!
