Is Balfour, the jewelry company perhaps best known for producing university signet rings, a Yankees fan? Looks that way. According to recent buzz, Balfour designed the World Series Champs’ stunning new diamond rings.
The team, who received the rings during opening-day ceremonies on April 13, has won 27 World Series Championships. Their latest bauble is a bling-ing showpiece in white gold featuring diamonds with the team’s logo on the crest. The logo is set in the shape of a baseball field diamond, complete with diamonds at the first, second, third, and home base markers—very fitting, no? Additionally, the words “Tradition” and “Unity” are written along the sides with a rendering of the new stadium, and the name of the team’s owner “Steinbrenner.”
Balfour has also been commissioned to create replicas of the Yankees’ multitude of championship rings from 1923 to 2009. These rings will be unveiled during opening day next year.
