A month ago, celebrities were not solely preoccupied with conquering Halloween. A considerable number of them also made the decision to commemorate their achievement by consuming high-priced ice sourced from renowned jewelers around the globe. It must be pleasant.
Notable items featured Lil Yachty’s exorbitantly priced teeth, Drake’s collection honoring For All the Dogs, and Ja’Marr Chase’s NFL gridiron chain—if you can believe that—which some of us might have considered purchasing for ourselves. Listed below are some of the most expensive pieces of jewelry acquired by celebrities in October 2023.
Lil Yachty’s $1 Million Diamond Teeth
The majority of individuals only visit the dentist to ensure that they do not have cavities. This month, Lil Yachty traveled to Los Angeles to have teeth worth $1 million implanted into his mouth by a dentist. The celebrity dentist Thomas Connelly performed the procedure, and Angel City Jewelers of Los Angeles supplied the gemstones. Twenty-six carats were utilized to adorn the upper row of Yachty’s teeth with four veneers. In addition, the rapper visited the emporium of Johnny Dang to purchase a set of diamond grills for the bottom. Yachty had an extraordinary 2023. It is abundantly clear that he is not holding back in his celebrations.Drake’s ‘For All the Dogs’ HaulIn honor of the publication of For All the Dogs, Drake opted to produce a number of new custom pieces. He appears to have accepted Paul Wall’s offer to provide him with “grills for life.” Johnny Dang, his legendary Houston jeweler and business associate, was approached for one of his signature diamond grills. Drake displayed it prominently in the photo he published immediately following the album’s release. The complete set consists of flawless honeycomb diamonds encircled by canines of solid white gold. Additionally, Lebanese jeweler Nadine Ghosn crafted a custom chain for him that featured dog bone links and comprised fifty carats of white diamonds, eighteen carats of pink diamonds, and 18-karat gold. The highlight of the haul was his most recent collaboration with fellow Torontonian Alex Moss, which he referred to as the “Crown Jewel of Toronto.” The chain features the CN Tower, a prominent structure in the city, encircled by mascots representing the Blue Jays and Raptors. A secret key is concealed within the chain bearing the Maple Leafs logo. The magnificent piece is comprised of emerald-cut white diamonds, 18-karat white gold, white, blue, and yellow VVS diamonds, and Burmese red rubies. Moss, who declined to disclose the precise value, stated to Complex, “There are certain artifacts housed in museums that are devoid of any monetary value.” “That precisely is this.”Cardi B’s Santa Maria RosaryAlex Moss acquires an additional A-list client. Cardi B graced her birthday celebration this month donning a Santa Maria rosary by Moss. It is among a limited edition of only three. The jeweler’s website specifies that the chain is composed of VVS diamonds set in 14.2 carats of white gold. The chain links are designed to resemble Gothic windows found in cathedrals. If you have an additional $35,000 lying around, you are eligible to purchase one. Ja’Marr Chase’s 7-Eleven PendantCincinnati Bengals superstar wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase told reporters following a discouraging defeat, “I’m always open.” By strategically partnering with Chase, 7-Eleven, a convenience store chain renowned for its round-the-clock operations, executed a marketing campaign. In addition to a collection of apparel, 7-Eleven collaborated with King Ice to design a pendant bearing its logo. Although Chase opted to wear his own chain to the game, this is one of the few opportunities for fans to acquire the exact item that their beloved athlete was wearing. Customers could acquire a 7-Eleven logo pendant comprised of green, orange, and red VVS synthetic diamonds suspended from a 14-karat gold plated chain for a mere $120. Since then, the chain has sold out. This was effective viral marketing. Druski’s Coulda Been Records PendantThe Roc-A-Fella chain is one example. The fourth-degree chain exists. The Coulda Been Records chain may be appended to the aforementioned roster. Druski visited Icebox in Atlanta in order to commission a piece that would symbolize his satirical record label. The relic incorporates 31 carats of diamonds and 100 grams of white and rose gold to replicate the logo, which closely resembles the iconic emblem of Cash Money. An examination of the remarks on Icebox’s post indicates that Druski’s record label is already seeking a deserving recipient, as one commenter put it: “TAG AN ARTIST WHO DESERVES THIS.” Who will have the audacity (or lack thereof) to wear this around their neck initially?
