Diamond bracelets are one of the most enduring forms of jewellery. Often crafted in gold, platinum or silver, they may feature rows of matched diamonds, articulated links or intricate gemstone-set motifs. From elegant rivière bracelets popular in the 19th century to modern tennis bracelets, these pieces have long symbolised sophistication and timeless elegance. Contemporary creations by Cartier, Tiffany & Co., Van Cleef & Arpels and Bulgari continue to captivate collectors, while historic examples remain highly sought-after — a pair of 18th century diamond bracelets commissioned by Marie Antoinette were sold by Christie's for CHF 7.5 million in 2021.
