The necklace reportedly contains “two [kilograms] of gold and over 200 diamonds.” Beckham Jr.’s jeweler told TMZ at the time, revealed it consisted of “300 carats of round diamonds, 200 carats of emerald-cut diamonds and 2.
5 [kilograms] of gold.” Beckham Jr.’s prolific spending isn’t the most a player has spent on a necklace, though.
Back in January 2024, former edge rusher Chandler Jones dropped seven figures on a chain boasting “300 carats of diamonds.” The piece is said to be worth $1.1 million.
