This impressively sized piece of 10K gold jewelry is an authentic 1993 Chicago Bulls NBA Championship "Salesman Sample" ring manufactured by Jostens identical to the ring awarded to Chicago Bulls super-star shooting guard Michael Jordan for the Bulls historic 1993 NBA Championship earned after their Finals victory over the Phoenix Suns to secure their third consecutive NBA Championship Title. In recognition of this accomplishment the weighty ring is engraved on the right side with the title, "World Champions 1993 3-Peat," and on the left side bears Jordan's name and uniform number "23" with Chicago's impressive post-season record of "15-4." The top of the ring is designed in a distinctive emblematic shape adorned with the Bulls logo in red "stone" with gold trimmed horns set in the center of a synthetic "diamond" stone studded face. The ring is engraved 10K on the inside by Jostens, the manufacturer. Jordan was named 1993 Finals MVP setting a Finals record for points scored per game and won his seventh straight scoring title tying Wilt Chamberlain. As a Bulls player Jordan led them to six World Championships including a second "3-Peat" in 1998 after having returned to the Bulls after his first basketball retirement following the 1993 season. This 1993 Michael Jordan Chicago Bulls NBA Championship Ring is among the most impressive Championship rings from any sport that we have ever seen. Sized at an impressively large "13," it is also among the largest of any ring that we have seen and displays more like a trophy than a jewelry award.
