The famous Canadian rapper, Drake, has a reputation for being generous when it comes to money. Remember when he shocked the people in Maimi by handing out stacks of hundred dollar bills to random strangers on the street during the filming of a music video. Or what about the time when he bought himself a luxurious private plane worth millions?
Aside from that, he also spent millions of dollars buying luxurious cars and mansions. But nothing compares to his love of expensive jewels.
The Canadian-born singer made headlines when he bought a necklace worth $1.6 million, encrusted with 125 diamonds. Now, Drake has received another gallant diamond-studded gift from a company that costs an astounding $550,000!
Drake’s Mega-Carat Collection
It seemed the renowned rapper is adding more diamonds to his luxurious mega-carat collection. Drake recently received a luxurious sports jacket made of 235 handset diamonds from Toronto’s Garrison Bespoke.
The outerwear was made from a century-old deadstock jersey cloth, which is extremely rare and valuable. Moreover, Bespoke had the fabric exported from Dormeuil private collection.
The jacket’s back is adorned with foundry diamonds arranged in the shape of a basketball whereas the front carries the Grammy Award winner’s signature OVO Owl logo, made with more diamonds, of course.
A Customized Design
Aside from the customized features, Drake also participated in designing the jacket. The rapper says he personally created the black and gold linings on his OVO Raptors Jersey.
Meanwhile, Garrison Bespoke’s owner, Michael Nguyen, said it’d been an honor to create such a special piece for one of his finest countrymen to commemorate his successful year as the Global Ambassador for Raptors.
They’re also proud to dedicate an exceptional piece of clothing that represents the combination of ancient craft and modern innovation, making it a truly unique jacket worthy of its new owner.
Other Luxurious Gifts
Before this expensive gift, Drake also received an extremely expensive OVO Owl pendant from Jason of Beverly Hills. The famous rapper had the necklace customized last year and the result was an astounding life-sized replica of Drake’s signature owl logo.
What makes this owl necklace special is that it’s made of 100 carats of Asscher-cut diamonds. The jeweler who took Drake’s job shared how shocked he was when the rapper texted him the details of the special project.
The Story
The moment he heard about the design, Jason knew he had to make it since it was going to be a special, one-of-a-kind necklace. It took Jason six weeks to make the pendant before it was flown to the rapper in a custom birdcage.
The renowned jeweler went an extra mile and even created the birdcage with diamonds to complement the sparkly necklace.
According to Jason, he incorporated the diamond stones since he knew the actor loves to add gemstones to his favorite owl logo. Aside from the necklace, Drake also received a diamond iPhone case worth $400,000 and a million-dollar outfit from Papis. We’re jealous!
