The New England Patriots presented players, coaches and football staff with their Super Bowl LI Championship Rings during a beautiful private ceremony this evening at Robert Kraft’s residence. Created by Jostens, the leading national custom jewelry designer and manufacturer, the championship ring commemorates the Patriots historic fifth Super Bowl championship and memorable Super Bowl LI victory.
“Jostens is honored to once again partner with the New England Patriots to create a championship ring that celebrates the team’s historic win and honors its undeniable championship legacy,” said Chris Poitras, vice president, Jostens. Every detail of the ring was considered in telling the story of this incredible team.
The Super Bowl LI Championship Ring features the iconic Patriots logo made from a custom-cut created corundum sapphire and ruby. An additional corundum sapphire in the background proudly surrounds the Patriots logo and five iconic Vince Lombardi Trophies. Each trophy features a marquise-cut diamond and then is pavé-set with brilliant round diamonds. Surrounding the custom sapphire corundum is another perimeter row of diamonds bringing the total on the top of the ring to 270 round diamonds. The title WORLD CHAMPIONS surrounds the sides contributing to the ring’s unique shape and size.
The left side of the ring features the recipient’s name and title set above the 5X symbol and five round diamonds representing the Patriots Super Bowl championships. This side of the ring is completed with the iconic Gillette Stadium Bridge accented with the years of the Patriots past Super Bowl victories.
On the right side of the ring, the Super Bowl LI logo is highlighted with the game’s final score at the top and the team’s stellar 17-2 overall record at the bottom. Framing the side is Patriots Chairman and CEO Robert Kraft’s unforgettable postgame comment that this Super Bowl victory was “UNEQUIVOCALLY THE SWEETEST.”
Two custom arbors make up the inside of the ring, highlighted with Mr. Kraft’s memorable quote, “WE ARE ALL PATRIOTS,” along with his signature and the date when he first delivered that line. The right arbor reads, “GREATEST COMEBACK EVER,” a nod to the 31-unanswered points scored to record the most dramatic come-from-behind win in Super Bowl history.
Crafted in 10-karat white gold, the ring has a carat weight of 5.1 and features a stone count of 275 round diamonds, plus five marquise-cut diamonds representing the franchise’s five Vince Lombardi trophies. This latest Patriots Super Bowl Ring is the largest Super Bowl ring ever created and is truly a sight to behold.
