14K Gold Sean O'Malley Sapphire Setup 67664

#67664

Real diamond tennis chains, each marked natural or lab-grown, beside chains set with colored stones such as sapphire, ruby and opal. All are solid gold or platinum, 14K on nearly every one, never gold-plated. Every lab-grown chain says lab in its title. Widths run 2 to 7 mm, most chains are 18 to 24 inches long, and most listings offer yellow, white and rose gold.

“Choose lab-grown if you want the look. Choose natural if the piece is meant to be passed down to someone you love.” Trax, at the jewelry store on 47th Street

Choose the stone size first. A 10 pointer makes a 3.5 mm chain, and most chains here come in 22 inches.

In sales, the 4 to 4.9 mm chains lead here, about two in five of what this page sells.

Buyer's guide

How to buy a diamond tennis chain, or a sapphire, opal or ruby one

Pick the stone size first, then the length, then read the origin line on the listing

Choose the stone size first, because the stone sets the width and the weight. The size is the pointer, and a bigger pointer makes a wider chain with more diamond in it. Then pick the length; most chains here come in 22 inches. Take 14K, as nearly every chain here is. Read the Diamond Origin line on each listing, and ask the desk when it is missing.

Find your chain in ten seconds

Pick a length and a width. The drawing moves; the button shows the chains.

Length

Width

A 2.5 mm tennis chain at 22 inches lands at mid chest, the length most chains here come in. Weights at this width vary by build; read the grams on the listing. 81 of the 150 chains here come in 22 inches.

Show me the tennis chains Text this to the desk

Drawn on an average build; a bigger neck sits the same chain higher. Nearly every listing shows its width, length and grams; where one does not, ask the desk.

The pointer: what pointer size means on a diamond tennis chain

Start with the pointer, the size of every stone in the row. A point is a hundredth of a carat, so each stone in a 10 pointer weighs a tenth of a carat. The stone decides the width, and the table below gives it at each size. The carat total is all the stones weighed together. The pointer tells you the look, and the total tells you how much diamond you get. Where a title names no pointer, ask the desk the stone size. Buying for her? Most of these rows are also on our diamond tennis necklaces for women, sized by the same pointer.

Stones: lab-grown or natural diamond, and sapphire, opal or ruby tennis chains

Seven in ten of these chains are diamond. Of the chains set with diamonds, sapphire mixes included, a little more than half say lab-grown and the rest natural on the origin line. A grown diamond is the same crystal as a mined one, just as hard. Read the Diamond Origin line lower on the listing. If it is missing, ask the desk, and never take it as natural. Sapphire leads the colored chains and wears every day like ruby. Opal is soft and hates heat, so wear it gently.

Width: how thick a tennis chain should be, 2 to 7 mm

Pick the stone you want to see, and the width comes with it. In sales, the 4 to 4.9 mm chains lead this page, then those under 3 mm. At 2 to 2.5 mm the chain is a fine line of light, alone or layered. At 3 to 3.5 mm it reads as a row of stones. From 4 mm people see it across the room. The newest mounts weigh about half the older ones at some small stone sizes, so compare the grams on each listing.

Length: what length tennis chain to get, 18, 20 or 22 inches

Take 22 inches, the length most chains here come in. It lies on the chest, where the stones show. Next comes 18, at the collarbone, with 20 between them. Measure a chain you already wear, clasp closed, or try the men's gold chains guide's length finder. Shortening takes out whole settings, and an altered chain cannot come back, so settle the inches with the desk first: the live chat, or a text to 212-872-9692 that a person answers from 10 AM ET.

Buying: the clasp, stock, care and returns on a tennis chain

Ask about the clasp before you pay, because it is the weak point on a stone-set chain, and most listings do not name theirs. The secure kind is a box clasp, a tongue that snaps into a box, with a figure-eight latch behind it. Ask too if yours is in stock or built for you. An in-stock piece usually ships within 2 to 5 business days, with tracking, under the shipping policy. A stone that clicks or turns goes to the bench. Under the refund policy, a new, unworn, unaltered chain can return within fourteen calendar days of confirmed delivery unless it is marked Final Sale. Customer service clears it first at service@traxnyc.com or 212-391-3832 and issues a TraxNYC label, and the 5 percent restocking fee and the return shipping come out of the refund. For anything a listing leaves out, use the live chat, or call 212-872-9692 and reach a person from 10 AM ET.

By pointer: the width, grams and carats a diamond tennis chain runs at each stone size
PointerMiddle widthMiddle gramsMiddle carats
3 pointer2.6 mm18.4 g7.3 ct

75 pointer5.9 mm52.9 g66 ct
80 pointer6.2 mm75 g75.5 ct

The width is the middle of every chain naming the pointer; the grams and carats are the diamond chains' middle, as listed, and the newest mounts run lighter at 10, 15, 20 and 25 points.

Questions we get in the store

What is a tennis chain?

A tennis chain is a row of stones, one to a setting, with a hinge between each setting so it bends with your neck and lies flat. Men and women wear the same build, and the women's side calls it a tennis necklace.

Are these tennis chains real diamonds, and are they lab-grown or natural?

Seven in ten chains here carry diamonds. Every diamond chain fills its origin line: a little more than half lab-grown, the rest natural. When the line is missing, put the question to the live chat before you buy; by text, 212-872-9692 is read from 10 AM ET.

What length tennis chain should I get?

Take 22 inches, the length most chains here come in, which lies on the chest. Next comes 18 inches, at the collarbone. Measure a chain you own with the clasp closed, and settle the inches with the desk before any cut.

More questions we get

What does pointer mean on a tennis chain?

The pointer is the size of each stone in points, and a point is a hundredth of a carat. So a 20 pointer sets stones of a fifth of a carat each. A bigger pointer makes a wider chain with more diamond.

How thick should a tennis chain be?

Choose the stone you want to see, and the width follows it. Under 3 mm makes a fine line of light, and in sales the 4 to 4.9 mm chains lead here. A 4 mm chain is seen across a room, and a wider one stands on its own.

Is a tennis chain here 14K gold, and which color should I pick?

Nearly every tennis chain here is solid 14K gold, with one in 10K and one in platinum. Most listings offer yellow, white and rose gold.

How do I clean a tennis chain?

Soak it in warm soapy water and work a soft brush under the settings, then rinse and dry it. Leave ultrasonic and steam cleaning to the desk. A stone that clicks or turns is loose, so bring it to the bench first.

Can I return a tennis chain or have it shortened?

Yes to a return, and a jeweler quotes a shortening. Clear a return with customer service first, at service@traxnyc.com or 212-391-3832; unless it is marked Final Sale, a chain that is new, unworn and unaltered returns on a label TraxNYC issues within fourteen calendar days of confirmed delivery. The refund policy deducts the 5 percent restocking fee and the return shipping. A shortened chain is final.

About our tennis chains

Every lab-grown tennis chain here is also on lab-grown diamond chains, beside the lab-grown pendants. Our blog has a diamond tennis chain guide. For a stone size or length not listed here, ask about a custom chain.

Stone size sets the width

Many titles here give the stone size in points; a point is a hundredth of a carat, so a 10 pointer chain is set with tenth-carat stones. The stone sets the width: in a single row of round diamonds here, a 3 pointer makes a chain about 2.5 mm wide, a 10 pointer about 3.5 mm, a 20 pointer about 4 mm and a 30 pointer about 4.5 mm. The carat total counts every stone, so with the same stones it grows with the length.

How wide should a man's tennis chain be? Is 2 mm too thin?

The width listed most here is 4 mm. Under 3 mm isn't too thin if you want a fine line: it sits well under a collar, beside another chain or with a pendant. Worn alone to be seen, go 4 mm or wider, and 5 mm and up is the bold end. Hanging a pendant on it? Send a jeweler both item numbers and we'll check that the chain fits the bail.
