Steelers Earn Super Bowl XLIII Rings

The Pittsburgh Steelers have beaten out the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, earning them coveted Super Bowl Rings. This is sixth Super Bowl Title for the Steelers, the most for any team in the history of the National Football League (NFL).

The NFL covers the cost of each diamond ring – up to $4,000 per ring for up to 90 rings. The winning team creates the design for each diamond ring. The Super Bowl rings usually include yellow or white gold and are studded with diamonds. Some include the team’s name or logo, the Super Bowl number, the score of the game, or the player’s name and/or jersey number. Often the teams chooses a diamond ring design that exceeds $4,000 and the team’s management absorbs the remainder of the costs.

When the Steelers won their last Super Bowl – Super Bowl XL -- the diamond ring featured five large diamonds shaped like the Lombardi Trophy. The design isn’t unveiled until months after the Super Bowl, and it often takes a year for team members to receive the diamond ring.
