The 37th edition of the World Series of Poker kicks off in a little more than two weeks from now at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. Harrah's today unveiled the new design of the unique champion's bracelet, a 14-karat white and yellow gold plaque handset with 170 six carat diamonds. The bracelet was designed by TRITON Jewelry, a division of Frederick Goldman, Inc.

2005 and 2006 from the top down. The designs from 2004 and 2005 are
great, but the 2006 design from Frederick Goldman (pictured at the
bottom) looks even better.
The 37th WSoP runs from June 25 to August 10, and the $10,000 NL Holdem main event starts on July 28. The 2006 champion's bracelet is a unique plaque designed for the winner of the main event of the World Series of Poker.
The bracelet is crafted from 14-karat white and yellow gold, handset with 170 full-cut six carat white diamonds. The plaque center features uniquely shaped precious color stones to represent the suit designs - a heart-shaped ruby for the Heart suit, a princess cut-shaped ruby for the Diamond suit, a heart-shaped black sapphire for the Spade suit and three round black diamonds for the Club suit. The bracelet's plaque is supported by roughly 58 grams of solid diamond cut rope chain.
The bracelet was designed by TRITON Jewelry, a division of Frederick Goldman, Inc. Goldman is one of the largest manufacturers of jewelry in North America. Goldman redesigned all bracelets for the 2006 WSoP and also has launched a a specialized line of jewelry for men and women modeled on its design.
The new line will consist of pendants, bracelets, cuff links, rings, a key ring and a money clip, and will feature the World Series of Poker logo. All items are thematically consistent with the champion's bracelet and available at independent jewelry stores in the fall.
