The statement pin is from the LA-based fine jeweller’s capsule collection with artist Olivia Steele, created in 2018 for Miami Art Basel.

“For five years, the Stay Present pin waited in my safe for the perfect wearer,” says Maor’s designer and creative director, Maor Cohen. “I’m so grateful and thankful for the pin to be a part of the biggest moment in LeBron’s career.”
