This is the latest heavyweight jewelry extravaganza from Canadian rapper Drake – a necklace fashioned from 6lbs of gold and 250 carats of flawless colored diamonds.
It depicts his alter ego, a cartoon character called Anita Max Wynn who he introduced to fans in 2023.
The piece was commissioned from celebrity jeweler Jason of Beverly Hills for an undisclosed price.
The pendant, a likeness of Anita Max Wynn, shows a girl sporting a blonde bob haircut, rosy cheeks and large spectacles. It is set with white, blue, green and pink diamonds.
A graphic on the reverse shows concert venues on Drake’s upcoming tour, together with a secret panel revealing a 3D skyline recreation of Toronto, his home town.
Drake is known for his extravagant and expensive jewelry collection, including a chain featuring 2,100 VVS diamonds totaling 74.9 carats, his Owl Chain, made of 1kg of gold and over 100 carats of Asscher cut diamonds and the $12.5m Previous Engagements necklace with 42 stones representing 42 potential engagements (total 351.38 carats).
Drake, aged 38 – real name Aubrey Drake Graham – showed off the necklace on Instagram ahead of a tour of Australia and New Zealand next month.
