Jason Arasheben, a jeweler based in Beverly Hills, has become a prominent figure in crafting championship rings for major professional sports teams, including top NBA and NFL franchises. His creations have adorned eight of the last 11 NBA title-winning teams as well as several Super Bowl champions, such as the Los Angeles Rams, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Philadelphia Eagles, and Seattle Seahawks.

Operating from an unassuming office near the UCLA campus—where his entrepreneurial journey began selling hair accessories and small trinkets—Arasheben has risen from $28,000 in debt to a leading designer of elaborate sports jewelry. His rings are distinguished by intricate details and innovative features that go beyond traditional designs.

The Seahawks’ 2026 championship ring exemplifies Arasheben’s craftsmanship and creativity. The piece measures roughly the size of a child’s fist and is adorned with 20 carats of white diamonds and blue sapphires. It incorporates a miniature representation of Lumen Field along with the team’s hawk-head logo and two Lombardi Trophies. Uniquely, the ring’s top lifts off to transform into a pendant, revealing an interior containing a piece of cowhide from a game-used football. Surrounding the sides are twelve flags symbolizing the team’s “12th Man” fan base, with one acting as a concealed button that activates a mechanism displaying the words “World Champions.” The ring is housed in a custom box featuring three spotlights that illuminate the ring as it rotates on a mechanical platform. Each ring weighs approximately one-third of a pound.

Arasheben’s approach to design often incorporates creative elements inspired by a variety of sources, including a Buzz Lightyear toy that influenced the inclusion of color-change faces and pop-out wings on some pieces. After initially focusing on selling to nail salons post-college, he shifted to creating custom jewelry for professional athletes, which opened doors to lucrative contracts to produce championship rings.

Looking ahead, Arasheben has expressed interest in competing to design medals for the 2028 Olympic Games. He also acknowledges the competitive nature of the business, citing the Los Angeles Dodgers losing their ring contract as a reminder of the challenges in his industry. Nonetheless, Arasheben continues to build a reputation for combining artistry and innovation in commemorating sports achievements.
