{"product_id":"retired-james-avery-14k-gold-love-tennis-racket-sport-charm-pendant-htf-rare","title":"RETIRED James Avery 14K Gold Love Tennis Racket Sport Charm Pendant - HTF Rare","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis retired James Avery 14K gold charm shapes a tennis racket with the word LOVE cut through the strings, turning the scoring term into the design itself. The lettering is pierced clean through the racket head so light passes behind each letter, and the letters are angled to follow the oval of the frame rather than sitting flat, which takes real skill to lay out at this scale. The handle is finished with a wrapped grip, each turn of the tape modeled separately down its length, and the frame carries a smooth rounded edge that catches light along the whole curve. The stamp on the reverse is absolutely stunning, with the JA candelabra, 14K, and the copyright mark all struck deep and crisp. A heavy uncut loop hangs it perfectly on a charm bracelet or chain. Retired and extremely hard to find, quite possibly the only example on the open market at the time of writing, and a piece that works equally well for a tennis player or as a play on the word love. Comes with the James Avery box and pouch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails:\u003cbr\u003eDesigner: James Avery\u003cbr\u003eMetal: 14K gold\u003cbr\u003eHallmarks: 14K, JA Candelabra\u003cbr\u003eMotif: Tennis racket with pierced LOVE lettering\u003cbr\u003eStatus: Retired, HTF, extremely rare\u003cbr\u003eHeight: Approximately 1 inch including the uncut loop\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 1.5 grams\u003cbr\u003eIncludes: James Avery box and pouch\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Excellent estate condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFun Facts:\u003cbr\u003eJames Avery began handcrafting jewelry in Kerrville, Texas in 1954, starting out in a two-car garage.\u003cbr\u003eIn tennis, love means a score of zero, and the most cited explanation traces it to the phrase playing for love, meaning playing for nothing at all.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Updated July 2026","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53616740696429,"sku":null,"price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/8272\/0109\/files\/Retired_James_Avery_14K_gold_Love_tennis_racket_charm_pendant_with_pierced_lettering.jpg?v=1785299151","url":"https:\/\/silverqueenstudio.com\/products\/retired-james-avery-14k-gold-love-tennis-racket-sport-charm-pendant-htf-rare","provider":"Silver Queen Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
