Dodgers hand out World Series rings, featuring Game 7 dirt from Blue Jays’ stadium and a ring inside the ring

Here is a paragraph from the Champions Collective, the Jostens-backed makers of the rings, on how many diamonds and sapphires they jam-packed into these things:

The ring top is a statement of victory. Embellished around the face in 14K yellow gold, the title WORLD CHAMPIONS is written in a spectacular array of stones: 32 diamonds for WORLD and 54 for CHAMPIONS. At the heart of the design, a singular, immaculate diamond symbolizes the Dodgers’ spot as the No. 1 team in baseball. The iconic LA logo hosts 17 custom-cut blue sapphires, representing the 17 hard-fought games of their postseason journey. Behind the logo is a backdrop of 79 diamonds with 48 round sapphires surrounding the display. The Dodgers’ nine championship dates and 15 sparkling round sapphires encircle the ring top, while an additional 50 diamonds decorate the top and bottom of the bezel. Completing the ring top, a total of 70 round diamonds frame the centerpiece.

For those keeping score at home, that adds up to 286 diamonds and 80 sapphires on the ring tops alone.

Other features include a glass enclosure inside the ring displaying dirt gathered from home plate during the Dodgers’ epic Game 7 win over the Toronto Blue Jays and a second, smaller ring inside featuring each player’s signature. The scores of each series from the playoff run are also featured inside, and the team’s 4,012,470 total attendance can be found at the bottom.
