Before PS I was a creature of relatively simple diamond needs.

For years, I was perfectly content with my engagement ring and my watch. There was only one piece that I coveted for my everyday jewelry capsule-a diamond tennis bracelet. When my first child was born, I got a beautiful G/H color 4 ct white gold tennis bracelet. I enjoyed the MRB bracelet for over 17 years. Once I acquired my first old cut ring, however, I started longing for an old cut bracelet.

I have been low key searching for the ideal one for almost 2 years. Last month, I finally found the One Bracelet To Rule Them All (OBTRTA).

The bracelet is comprised of 32 approximately .25 ct OECS that are G to I color. The culet facets vary in size.

Here's the 4 ct MRB next to the 8 ct OEC.

And the best part is that she pairs nicely with all of my old cut rings!

It’s so beautiful and goes perfectly with all of your old cut treasures. Even though it’s 8!! ctws :-o the setting is so classy that I think you can dress it up or down allowing for almost everyday wear ❤️

Thanks so much @JV36912

Oh @maryjane04 I'm so tempted to name her, but it seems weird to name a bracelet (a silly line to draw-I know)

:love:Beautiful structural presence. Love the milgraining as frame to those diamonds!
Thank you @ItsMainelyYou ! If I'm being completely honest-I was sure about the box setting until I tried one on in person. You are exactly right-the setting makes nice frame for the stones!
