See Scott West Jewelry’s ‘Kryptonite’ and ‘Joker’ Rings
They’re available through a retailer that sells luxury products inspired by the lifestyle of Batman’s billionaire civilian persona.
Wayne Enterprises is the company in the DC Comics’ universe that is owned by Bruce Wayne, the uber-wealthy civilian persona of The Batman.
The jewelry offered on The Wayne Enterprises Experience includes two rare natural colored diamond rings with hues reminiscent of popular motifs from the Batman, and wider DC Comics, universe.
The “Kryptonite” ring embodies the green color of the radiation-filled material that drains Superman of his strength. It features a fancy vivid green-yellow diamond and two fancy intense blue diamonds.
It is listed online for $800,400.
“The Joker Purple” ring is a nod to the supervillain’s familiar ensemble.
The ring centers a fancy intense pink-purple diamond weighing more than 4 carats, accented by two fancy intense green diamonds.
Scott West is a third-generation diamantaire and the son of Larry West, founder of natural colored diamond wholesale company L.J. West Diamonds.
He launched the Scott West Jewelry brand in 2015 to showcase his family’s collection of gemstones, which includes a large number of Argyle Pink Diamonds from the now-closed Argyle mine in Western Australia.
“Combining comic book art with natural color diamonds creates a bold fusion, bridging the worlds of luxury and pop culture. This unique mash-up transforms rare gems into storytelling masterpieces, where art and opulence collide,” said L.J. West Diamonds Director of Strategy and Marketing Gino Di Geso, who led the collaborative project.
Though Bruce Wayne is only a character, his fictional life of ultra-luxury is covetable.
The idea that comic book readers have long daydreamed of having their own Batcave or Batmobile inspired the creation of experiential retail platform The Wayne Enterprises Experience.
The platform is a collaboration between Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, the media company’s licensing and retail merchandising organization, and Relevance International, a public relations and digital media agency.
They define The Wayne Enterprises Experience as “a brand ecosystem” that brings together Bruce Wayne/Batman intellectual property (IP) and luxury brands across the world.
Along with fine jewelry, the platform offers several categories of luxury items, from skincare products and designer furniture to custom cars and a luxury real estate portfolio, all available via its e-commerce website and through invite-only live theatrical events featuring shoppable items.
The platform is an expansion of Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products’ Wayne Enterprises label, a brand launched in 2022 with consumer luxury products and experiences.
