Following their Super Bowl LIII win, the New England Patriots took to owner Robert Kraft’s luxurious abode for one final celebration, wherein the players, coaches, executives and staff received bespoke rings. Touted by maker Jostens as the largest Super Bowl ring to date, the shiny bauble earns quarterback Tom Brady the honor of being the first-ever NFL player to win six rings.
Crafted in 10 karat gold, each ring features an average of 416 round diamonds and six marquise-cut diamonds — when combined with the 20 sapphires set throughout, the total gem carat weight sits at an imposing 9.85 carats. As for the actual design, the top of the ring sees the Patriots’ logo rendered atop six Lombardi trophies, with 108 surrounding pave-set diamonds representing the number of practices in the 2018 season. Similar meaning is imbued into the 20 round sapphires, which refer to the Patriots’ 20 AFC East division championships.
On the right side, the final score of Super Bowl LIII (13-3) and the event’s logo appears alongside the team’s wordmark. Each recipient’s name appears on the left side of the ring above the lighthouse and bridge from Gillette Stadium, with each player’s uniform number realized to the left of the lighthouse. Sealing the deal is Kraft’s "We Are All Patriots" statement, emblazoned inside.
Check out the official video of the players arriving at the party via the Patriots’ YouTube channel below.
