How much do 2026 Knicks championship rings cost?
That’s the question after famed luxury jeweler Jason of Beverly Hills, who designed the ring with input from Knicks executives, revealed it contained 22 carats of diamonds and sapphires, more than 180 grams of gold and nearly 800 individually set stones.
“I estimate that New York Knicks championship rings could be worth up to $250,000 each,” Neil Dutta, chief executive of jeweler Angelic Diamonds with more than 20 years of jewelry design experience, told the Post.
“Beverly Hills designer Jason also made the Golden State Warriors’ 2022 championship rings, which reportedly sold for a manufacturer’s price of $108,000 each. These featured about 16 carats of diamonds, so they’re a useful comparison.
“Given the higher combined weight of the gemstones and the complexity of the Knicks design, I believe a valuation closer to $250,000 is plausible, although the quality of the individual stones would ultimately influence this figure.”
The Knicks ring features a miniature recreation of the exterior of Madison Square Garden that rises by rotating the ring – and the underside of the removable portion of the ring recreates the Garden’s ceiling, while the top highlights the arena’s lower bowl.
A 0.16-carat round diamond signifies the team’s 16-point comeback in the deciding fifth game.
There are 16 emerald cut diamonds lining the inner portion of the ring for each playoff victory.
The shank of the ring is engraved with the phrase “Knicks in Five”, for the team’s victory in the NBA Finals against the favorite Spurs.
“Finding so many stones to work together takes a lot of care, especially when you’re trying to achieve a consistent color and finish,” Dutta said. “Then there is the setting work itself. With hundreds of stones so close together, each one must be positioned precisely, with enough metal to hold it securely.
“The miniature Madison Square Garden is even more impressive. The ring opens to reveal a detailed model of the arena, and adding a moving mechanism to a part already covered in gemstones makes manufacturing considerably more complicated. Each component must fit precisely and the settings must remain secure when the ring is opened and closed.”
Jason Arasheben did not disclose the exact price of the Knicks championship ring.
“It’s like asking how much the Mona Lisa costs. It’s priceless,” Arasheben said during an appearance on “CBS Mornings” Wednesday, adding that he had seven months to create it.
“The ring was designed to capture the identity of the team and the defining moments of its title run,” Arasheben exclusively told Page Six Style. “What makes this ring unique from others I have created is how each detail – from the combination of round brilliant and emerald cut diamonds with radially set blue sapphires to individual tributes to players and championship milestones – tells a story that is distinctly about the New York Knicks.”
Jason from Beverly Hills made 200 premium rings for purchase, costing $19,995. Each ring is individually numbered.
Another style of championship ring, made of a nickel alloy and cubic zirconia, is valued at $299.
The fan collection, which includes a necklace, pendant, bracelet and paperweight, ranges from $299 to $15,995.
Beverly Hills’ Jason has won eight of the last 10 NBA title rings, as well as the 2026 Stanley Cup championship rings for the Carolina Hurricanes and the 2026 Super Bowl rings for the Seattle Seahawks.
