Crisp shine, clean lines, zero noise—a diamond tennis chain (diamond-look stones) is the most versatile drip you can own. Here's how to pick the perfect width, length, stones, and finish for your style.

What Is a "Diamond" Tennis Chain?

It's a continuous line of prong-set stones designed to hit from every angle. At BLNG, we build the diamond look with premium brilliant-cut stones and heavy plating so you get maximum sparkle, daily durability, and friendly pricing.

Stone Options: CZ, Moissanite, or Diamond

  • CZ (Cubic Zirconia): Bright, consistent sparkle at the best value—perfect for everyday wear and layering.
  • Moissanite: Higher fire and brilliance; passes most handheld diamond testers; price sits between CZ and natural diamonds.
  • Natural Diamonds: Luxury tier; unmatched status and price.

Pick the tier that matches your budget and expectations. For most stacks, CZ or Moissanite nails the look with zero stress.

Width Guide (MM) — How Bold Do You Want It?

  • 2–3 mm: Minimalist, clean, great as a base layer or with a pendant.
  • 4 mm: Everyday standout; noticeable pop without shouting.
  • 5–6 mm: Statement territory; reads luxe in pics and in person.
  • 7–8 mm+: Red-carpet energy; wear solo or over a tee for instant flex.

Length Guide — Find Your Drop

  • 18" (45 cm): Choker fit; sits high on the collarbone; ideal for slimmer necks or layering above a Cuban.
  • 20" (50 cm): The universal choice; sits on the collarbone for most.
  • 22" (55 cm): A little more room; pairs perfectly with a 20" Cuban.
  • 24" (60 cm): Relaxed drop; great over tees and hoodies.

Pro tip: stack two lengths (20" + 22") for instant dimension without going heavier in width.

Setting & Build Quality — What to Check

  • Prongs: Even, secure, and not snaggy on tees or hoodies.
  • Stone Alignment: No gaps, no leaning stones; smooth line all the way around.
  • Clasp: Tight box clasp with figure-eight safety or double-lock; easy on/off, stays put.
  • Finish: Even color across links and clasp; no patchy heavy plating.

White, Yellow, or Rose? Pick Your Finish

  • White Gold: Frosty, modern, and super easy to pair with streetwear fits.
  • Yellow Gold: Rich and classic; pops on warm skin tones and black/white tees.
  • Rose Gold: Subtle flex; reads luxe without going loud.
