The jewelry journey – mutual collaboration
Blinged-out jewelry serves as a status symbol, covering the entire surface in shining, reflective gemstones that command attention. In Michael’s profession, where attention was what he was used to, it was only fitting to create his logo pendant in this bling-bling style.

The Logo Michael wished to bling out
Covering an existing logo in gemstones takes skill to select the right sizes to fit the shape, especially if the outline or shape is as unique as Michael W’s logo, requiring meticulous attention to detail and precision craftsmanship. We selected 169 stones in a variation of sizes wight a total of 27.51 carats to full Michael’s design.

Perfecting the fit is as important as selecting the right stones. We gave Michael a resin model of his pendant to try on. This ensures he’s completely happy with the size, especially since we’re making this piece for his chain.

For Michael, the journey to the ring has been anything but easy. A serious injury threatened to derail his dreams, casting doubt and uncertainty over his future in the sport. But true to his fighting spirit, Michael refused to be counted out. With resilience as his armor and determination as his guide, he embarked on a journey of recovery and redemption. The pendant Michael wears symbolizes his journey to achieving his dreams in wrestling. Whenever he puts it on, it reminds him of the hard work and dedication it took to get there. It’s like a little victory medal he wears every day.
