The Super Bowl Champion New York Giants unveiled the design of their championship ring yesterday. The white gold sparkler will feature 1.5 carats in diamonds; something that might leave Michael Strahan wanting more.

After the Giants beat the New England Patriots, Strahan claimed that he wanted  a ring that could be seen from ten tables away.

Not everyone is a huge fan of the ring, as reported by Yahoo! Sports:

“There was some discussion about maybe one of the rings was too big,” said center Shaun O’Hara, who was among group of players and team executives who designed the ring with officials from Tiffany and Co.“I threw out the fact that it was a big win, it was a huge win, so the ring should be designed accordingly,” O’Hara said.

“Michael said it best when he said he wanted a 10-table ring. I think everybody is going to be very pleased with the design. It is very clean, very classy, but at the same time it is very strong.

”The ring’s top is covered in diamonds and features three Super Bowl trophies accented with marquise diamonds signifying the Giants’ Super Bowl XXI, XXV and XLII victories. The team’s “NY” logo is in bead set round diamonds, while “World Champions” is emblazoned in raised letters on the top and bottom bezel, with channel set diamonds on left and right bezel.

Giants spokesman Pat Hanlon would not say how much the ring cost, but he would say that it would include the final score of the Super Bowl and some words recognizing the Giants’ 11 straight wins on the road.

Tiffany previously made rings for the Washington Redskins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers when they won their Super Bowls.
