The Brand Ambassador and Oscar Winner Wore A Suite of One-Of-A-Kind Designs

New York, NY

For the 98th Academy Awards, David Yurman designed a suite of custom High Jewelry brooches for Global Brand Ambassador and Best Actor winner Michael B. Jordan. 

 The trio of High Jewelry brooches was inspired by Sinners, which featured Jordan in an extraordinary dual performance and won four of its historic 16 nominations. Designed to reflect the film’s themes of invincibility and heroic fearlessness, each brooch features precision-carved asymmetrical rays. At the center of each design, striking rose-cut black diamonds are framed by a mix of pavé-set white and black diamonds and rubies. Every piece was handcrafted in David Yurman’s New York City atelier.
 
 Jordan completed his look with a selection of David Yurman signature designs, including a DY Mercer® double-row toggle chain necklace, a Hex Pavé tennis bracelet, Pavé huggie hoop earrings, and tennis necklaces in white and yellow gold.
