1.5 Carat Total Weight Half Tennis Necklace, 18" in 10k White Gold

All the Glamour. Half the Weight.

The half tennis necklace is one of the smartest designs in fine jewelry — diamonds set along the front-facing portion of the chain, creating the full, glamorous look of a classic tennis necklace from every angle that matters, while remaining lighter, more comfortable, and more wearable than a full diamond chain. This stunning piece features 1.5 carats of lab-grown diamonds in 10k white gold on an 18" chain — the diamond necklace that looks like a million dollars and feels like you're wearing nothing at all.

Why You'll Love It

• 1.5 Carats Total Weight — A generous spread of round brilliant lab-grown diamonds set along the front of the chain, delivering the full visual impact of a tennis necklace at a more accessible price point
• Half Tennis Design — Diamonds set only along the front-facing portion of the chain; from the front — which is all anyone sees — it looks identical to a full tennis necklace, while the plain chain back makes it lighter, more comfortable, and easier to wear all day
• Round Brilliant Lab-Grown Diamonds — The world's most popular diamond shape, engineered for exceptional light return and that signature all-around sparkle
• 10k White Gold — A durable, bright white gold alloy that delivers the look of fine white gold jewelry at an accessible price point; more resistant to everyday wear than higher karat gold
• 18" Chain Length — Sits at the collarbone or just below, the most universally flattering necklace length for a tennis-style necklace
• Ready to Ship — In stock and ready to deliver — no custom order wait times
• Conflict-Free & Ethically Sourced — Lab-grown diamonds are physically, chemically, and optically identical to mined diamonds, with a dramatically lower environmental footprint

Half Tennis vs. Full Tennis: What's the Difference?

A full tennis necklace features diamonds set all the way around the chain — 360 degrees of continuous diamonds. A half tennis necklace features diamonds only along the front-facing portion. From the front — which is the only view that matters when you're wearing it — they look identical. The half tennis is lighter, more comfortable for all-day wear, and more affordable, making it the smarter choice for most buyers who want the tennis necklace look without the full tennis necklace commitment.

The Tennis Necklace: A Timeless Classic

The tennis necklace earned its name at the 1987 US Open, when tennis star Chris Evert stopped a match to search for her diamond bracelet — and the style has been synonymous with effortless glamour ever since. The necklace version carries the same DNA: a continuous line of brilliant diamonds that elevates every outfit from a simple white tee to a formal gown. It is the necklace that works for everything, always.
