Dazzling white gold and diamond creation by Intergold commemorates the Detroit Red Wings' 2008 Stanley Cup title. Nicklas Lidstrom became the first European-trained captain to raise the Cup after the Wings, led by Conn Smythe winner Henrik Zetterberg and the stellar goaltending of Chris Osgood, delayed Pittsburgh's title aspirations and claimed their fourth championship since 1997. A hoard of 61 diamonds is set on the tableau, both within a raised white gold outline of the Cup and surrounding it in two levels. "Stanley Cup Champions" surrounds the bezel in raised letters and white gold Red Wings logo features red enamel detail on the bottom of the tableau. Weighing approximately 45 grams, this size 9 1/2 ring was presented to longtime Red Wings team physician Dr. John Finley, whose surname appears in relief on the left shank above "Red Wings" and the NHL shield. The right shank of this majestic white gold ring features the bowls of 11 Stanley Cups in raised gold, with a full modern full barrel Cup in the middle with "08" on it representing the Red Wings' latest addition to their collection in the wake of their six-game win over Sidney Crosby’s young Penguins in the 2008 final. "FAMILY" is stamped along with "Intergold 10K" within the band. This remarkable Red Wings Stanley Cup championship ring remains in spectacular condition, with the lightest of surface scratches on the band, and comes with Dr. John Finley's signed LOA.
