Honest Luxury: Why Our Tennis Bracelets Don’t Come with 60+ Certificates (And Why That’s a Win for You)
At Carat Club Co., our mission is "Luxury, Emancipated." To us, that means giving you the highest quality lab-grown diamonds without the "Industry Tax."
When it comes to our Tennis Bracelet collection, we receive one common question: "Does every diamond come with a certificate?" The honest answer is no. And here is exactly why that makes us the smartest choice in Hong Kong.
1. The Cost vs. Value Imbalance
In the diamond world, a single certification from a lab like IGI or GIA costs between US$50 and US$100 (HK$390 - HK$780) per stone.
Let’s look at the math for our entry-level 15cm Tennis Bracelet:
-
Number of Diamonds: 63 stones (0.05ct each).
-
Total Certification Fees: Between HK$24,000 and HK$49,000.
-
Carat Club Retail Price: Only HK$6,999 for our Platinum-Plated S925 version.
If we included certificates for every stone, the price of your bracelet would triple, just to pay for the paperwork. We believe your money should be spent on the sparkle of the diamonds, not on a folder full of paper that sits in your drawer.
2. Industry Standards & Smart Choices
It is a global industry standard that "melee" diamonds (the smaller stones used in bracelets and pavé settings) are not individually certified.
Even for our high-end 0.5ct stone Tennis Bracelet (18cm), our S925 version is priced at HK$27,499. Adding certificates would add another HK$14,000 to HK$28,000 to your final bill. By skipping the unnecessary certification of small stones, we offer you 100% authentic lab-grown diamonds at a fraction of the traditional retail cost.
| Stone Size (Each) | Bracelet Length | S925 Platinum-Plated | 18K White Gold |
| 0.05 ct | 150mm | HK$6,999 | HK$22,000 |
| 0.15 ct | 170mm | HK$10,199 | HK$25,300 |
| 0.50 ct | 180mm | HK$27,499 | HK$53,350 |
3. Guaranteeing Authenticity
Just because there isn't a certificate for every tiny stone doesn't mean we compromise on quality.
-
Expert Screening: Every diamond is screened using professional gemological equipment to ensure it is 100% real diamond (Lab-Grown), not moissanite or CZ.
-
Premium Materials: We use the same high-standard 9K White Gold, 18K White Gold, PT950 Platinum, or Platinum-fused S925 Silver as the world’s top luxury houses.
4. Get the Perfect Fit: Printable Size Guide
We want your "Out of Office" look to be perfect. A tennis bracelet should drape slightly—usually 1cm to 1.5cm larger than your actual wrist size.
To help you shop with confidence, we’ve created a Printable A4 Bracelet Size Guide. Simply print it out at 100% scale, cut out the ruler, and measure your wrist at home to find your exact match.
