AKRON, Ohio, Jan. 29, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- As the Official Jewelry Store of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Kay® Jewelers will proudly present the official Ring of Excellence to the Class of 2015, which will be elected this Saturday in Phoenix, Ariz. The company has also announced an exciting initiative to present all Pro Football Hall of Famers with their own customized Ring of Excellence beginning this year.

Kay® Jewelers was selected to redesign the Pro Football Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence in 2013, which marked only the third time in the institution's history that the ring had been redesigned. Now, all of the Pro Football Hall of Famers will get to have the same incredible depiction of enshrinement enjoyed by the classes of 2013, 2014 and, shortly, the new Class of 2015.

"We are proud to partner with the Pro Football Hall of Fame and thrilled to announce plans to provide an official customized Kay Jewelers Ring of Excellence to all Hall of Famers," said Ed Hrabak, President, Kay® Jewelers. "As the number one jewelry store in America, we pride ourselves on being able to deliver one-of-a-kind jewelry designs for any occasion, and the honor of being selected to provide the official Ring of Excellence is a testament to our custom capabilities."

The Kay® Jewelers Ring of Excellence contains a total diamond weight of 1 ¾ carats with outer diamonds that create a stadium effect surrounding a football shaped diamond center. The stunning ring celebrates the achievements of the select few whose professional football careers have been deemed worthy of admittance into the elite fraternity of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, while also recognizing each unique story. The customized ring design honors each Hall of Famer's career through intricate detail and state-of-the-art craftsmanship, featuring a likeness of the inductee's bust, along with his position and years in the league on one side, while his name, the Pro Football Hall of Fame logo and his enshrinement class is included on the other.

"Kay® Jewelers are superlative partners that represent the Pro Football Hall of Fame's mission to honor the heroes of the game, preserve its history, promote its values and celebrate excellence EVERYWHERE," stated Pro Football Hall of Fame President, David Baker. "The Hall of Fame is thrilled that Kay® Jewelers will provide the premier Ring of Excellence, which is an outstanding symbol to honor each Hall of Famer as a member of the most exclusive club in the world, the Pro Football Hall of Fame."
