Rapper launches religious bling

Tuesday, 20th April 2004 (4720 views)

Producer/rapper Kanye West has launched a new range of religious-themed jewellery in conjunction with celebrity jeweller Jacob.

The Hip-Hop star, whose hits include Jesus Walks, has unveiled a Christian jewellery line which includes diamond studded Christ pendants and a gold Jesus with a crown of diamond thorns and diamond eyes shedding ruby tears. The gold pieces are laden with diamonds and other gems.

Top jeweller Jacob Arabo's huge watches have been sported by stars such as Justin Timberlake and the Beckhams and the Russian immigrant is the jeweller of choice among Hip-Hop celebrities.

Jacob recently signed a licensing deal with the NBA for the rights to place the NBA logo and all 29 teams on his famous Five Time Zone watches.

Kanye and Jacob have yet to announce a name for their new range.
