Some of October’s Biggest Jewelry Purchases Like Lil Yachty’s $1 Million Diamond Teeth and Drake's 'For All the Dogs' Haul

Jeweler: Angel City Jewelers/Connelly DDS

Most of us just go to the dentist to make sure we don’t have any cavities. This month, Lil Yachty took a trip to Los Angeles to have a dentist implant $1 million teeth into his mouth. The work was done by celebrity dentist Thomas Connelly and the diamonds were provided by L.A.-based Angel City Jewelers. The four veneers placed on Yachty’s upper row of teeth totaled 16 carats. The rapper also stopped by Johnny Dang’s showroom to grab a bottom set of diamond grills. Yachty has had a huge 2023. Clearly, he isn’t skimping when it comes to celebrating it.

Jewelers: Johnny Dang, Nadine Ghosn, and Alex Moss

Drake decided to celebrate the release of For All the Dogs with multiple new custom pieces. It seems like he already took Paul Wall up on his offer to supply him with “grills for life.” He hit up his business partner and legendary Houston jeweler Johnny Dang for one of his signature diamond grills. It was the one we saw Drake flaunting in the photo that he posted shortly after the album’s launch. The full set features flawless honeycomb diamonds with solid white gold fangs. He also got a custom chain made featuring dog bone links from Lebanese jeweler Nadine Ghosn that features 18-karat gold, 50 carats of white diamonds, and six carats of pink diamonds. The standout of the haul was his latest creation with fellow Toronto native Alex Moss dubbed the “Crown Jewel of Toronto.” The chain depicts the city’s landmark, the CN Tower, surrounded by mascots for the Raptors and Blue Jays. A Maple Leafs logo on the chain holds a secret key. The amazing piece features 18-karat white gold, white, blue, and yellow VVS diamonds, Burmese red rubies, and emerald-cut white diamonds. While he would not share the exact value, Moss told Complex, "Some pieces that are in a museum have no price. That’s what this is."

Jeweler: Alex Moss

Alex Moss continues to add another A-list client. This month, Cardi B stepped out for her birthday celebration rocking one of Moss’ Santa Maria Rosaries. It is one of only three in existence. According to the jeweler’s website, the chain features 14-karat white gold, VVS diamonds, and weighs 15.2 carats. The links in the chain are inspired by gothic windows from cathedrals. If you have an extra $35,000 laying around, you can own one yourself. 

Jeweler: King Ice

After a frustrating loss, Cincinnati Bengals superstar wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase told reporters, “I’m always open.” In a stroke of marketing genius, 7-Eleven (the convenience store chain always known for being open 24/7) tapped Chase for a campaign. Along with a series of apparel, 7-Eleven linked up with King Ice to create a custom logo pendant. Chase wore his on game day, but this is one of the rare instances where fans could actually own the same chain worn by their favorite athlete. For just $120, customers could purchase their own 7-Eleven logo pendant consisting of green, orange, and red VVS simulated diamonds that hung from a 14-karat gold plated chain. The chain has since sold out. This was some viral marketing done right. 

Jeweler: Icebox

There’s the Roc-A-Fella chain. There’s the 4PF chain. Now, the Coulda Been Records chain can be added to the list. Druski hit up Atlanta’s Icebox to create the custom piece representing his satirical record label. It features 31 carats of diamonds and 100 grams of white and rose gold to recreate the logo, which bears a resemblance to Cash Money’s iconic emblem. A glance at the comments of Icebox’s post reveals that Druski’s label is already looking for a worthy recipient commenting, “TAG AN ARTIST WHO DESERVES THIS.” Who’s going to be talented (talentless?) enough to rock this around their neck first?
