The Vegas Golden Knights celebrated their 2023 Stanley Cup victory in style with a dazzling championship ring ceremony held at the luxurious Wynn Las Vegas on Sunday night. The team clinched their first-ever Stanley Cup in a thrilling five-game series against the Florida Panthers in June.

The Vegas Golden Knights took to their official Instagram account to share the unveiling of their stunning 2023 Stanley Cup championship rings. The post was captioned:

"IT’S HERE AND IT’S BEAUTIFUL 🤩 The 2023 Stanley Cup Champions now have the bling to show for it 💍."

The rings, adorned with symbolism and extravagant surprises, were designed in collaboration with renowned jeweler Jason of Beverly Hills.

Vegas Golden Knights owner Bill Foley expressed his confidence in Jason of Beverly Hills' track record, believing they could create a ring that was not only distinctive but also a perfect reflection of the city and the exceptional season the team had put together.

In true Las Vegas fashion, the championship rings are nothing short of opulent, featuring an array of eye-catching elements. One of the most intriguing features is a detachable top that can be worn as a pendant, complete with the inscription, "It's Knight Time" on the reverse side.

When removed, the top reveals a replica of the team's home arena, T-Mobile Arena, meticulously crafted to resemble the center ice logo during the 2023 Stanley Cup Finals. Small stars on this mini rink mark the locations where the Golden Knights scored their nine goals in the game that clinched the Cup.
