$10
The verdict
At $10, the BaubleBar Brooke is the rare bracelet that actually earns its place in a stack — the mixed-stone scatter reads more expensive than it is, and the pull-tie fit means it stays put whether you're wearing it on a 6-inch wrist or a 7.5-inch one.
What we love
- $10 price point makes it genuinely low-risk to try
- Pull-tie closure fits a wide range of wrist sizes without tools
- Light enough to forget you're wearing it
- Slim profile stacks without competing with chunkier pieces
- Multi-stone scatter catches light at varied angles
Worth knowing
- Glass stones, not crystal — sparkle is flattering in good light, less so in flat indoor lighting
- Pull-tie cord loosens with repeated wear and needs re-tightening
- Not built for longevity — cord will fray with heavy daily use
- No clasp means once it's knotted tight it can be fiddly to remove
Our review
What it is
The Brooke is BaubleBar's answer to the filler bracelet problem: you've got a chunky cuff on one wrist and a couple of gold chains on the other, and you need something sparkly and low-profile to bridge the gap. That's exactly what this does. The design scatters multi-shaped glass stones — rounds, navettes, it varies — along a thin cord that cinches tight via a pull-tie closure. It weighs almost nothing (literally 0.02 lbs), so you genuinely forget it's there.
The sparkle situation
We want to be honest: these are glass stones, not Swarovski crystal, not semi-precious anything. In good light — a dinner table, a phone camera flash — they catch beautifully and read as a genuine tennis bracelet. In flat indoor light they're more subdued. That's the trade-off at this price, and it's a fair one. The multi-stone mix means it catches light at slightly different angles, which actually works in its favor compared to a single-cut row.
Fit and wearability
The pull-tie closure is the thing we'd highlight to anyone hesitant about jewelry that isn't a standard clasp. You slide both cords to tighten, and it stays — no spring ring to fumble with, no lobster clasp to lose. It's genuinely adjustable to your wrist size rather than just having a few fixed links. The tradeoff is that pull-tie cords can loosen gradually with regular wear, so you may find yourself re-tightening it more than you would a proper clasp bracelet.
Stacking
This is BaubleBar's stated purpose for the Brooke, and it delivers. The slim profile means it doesn't compete with beefier pieces — it fills negative space. We've seen it paired with chunky chain bracelets, bangle stacks, and evil eye cord bracelets, and it works with all of them. The multi-stone colorway reads neutral enough to sit next to gold, silver, or mixed metal.
The $10 reality check
You're buying a fashion bracelet, not an heirloom. The cord will eventually fray with daily wear and repeated adjustments. The stones can loosen from their settings over time. Don't wear it swimming or sleeping, and don't expect it to look pristine in two years of hard use. What it will do is look great for a season or two, survive your bag, and not devastate you if it snags on something. At this price, buying two is still cheaper than most single bracelets from comparable brands.
Common questions
Brooke Tennis Bracelet - Mixed Stones, answered
Is the BaubleBar Brooke bracelet real stones or glass?
Glass. BaubleBar is a fashion jewelry brand and the Brooke is priced at $10, so the stones are glass, not crystal, gemstones, or CZ. They're set to catch light well for the price, but they're not comparable to fine or semi-fine jewelry.
How does the pull-tie closure work on the Brooke bracelet?
Two sliding knots on the cord cinch together to tighten the bracelet around your wrist. You pull both cords outward to loosen it for removal. No clasp required — it fits a range of wrist sizes and stays in place, though the cord can gradually loosen with daily wear.
Can I wear the BaubleBar Brooke Tennis Bracelet in water?
We'd skip it. The cord and glued stone settings aren't designed for water exposure. Remove it before swimming, showering, or heavy sweating to extend its life.
Does the Brooke bracelet tarnish?
The cord doesn't tarnish the way metal does, but the metal settings around the stones can discolor with moisture and skin contact over time. Keeping it dry will slow that considerably.
What wrist size does the BaubleBar Brooke fit?
BaubleBar describes it as adjustable via pull-tie closure, so it fits a range of wrist sizes — typically around 6 to 8 inches — without needing to choose a size at checkout.
Is the Brooke good for stacking with other bracelets?
Yes — that's explicitly its purpose. The slim cord profile and low-profile stone setting mean it layers under bangles, alongside chain bracelets, and next to beaded styles without adding bulk or clashing visually.
