Atlanta-Joc Pederson (Joc Pederson) used almost everything he did to lead trends and make fashion statements. The iconic works that are now ever-present can be attributed to the dialogue between Pedersen and his jeweler.

Jeweler Gabriel Arik made a variety of “golden” jewelry and necklaces for outfielder Joc Pederson of the Brave. The outfielder texted Arik before the playoffs and asked to create something unique.

"I said,'What do you think?' He texted me and said, "Where is Pearl? "I took a look and sent him a question. He was like, "Pearl". I said'OK', so I made him (a) a string of pearls," Arik said.

Arik knew how serious Pederson was about this request, so he went to work.

"I carefully selected each pearl for Jock. I want to make sure they are perfectly round," Arik said.

He did a great job. Pearl has become a sensation, and many people, including Pedersen, said it helped him and the Warriors perform their magic.

Arik said that he has made several identical necklaces, so there will always be a new necklace in Pederson's lineup.

"If the pearl necklace is broken, we can ship it the next day," Arik said.

Pederson's jewelry selection has been welcomed by fans and is becoming a fanatic.

"We have young children who come to get pearl necklaces, minor league players," Arik said.

Arik never thought that Pedersen's pearl vision would become iconic at a relatively cheap price.

"For the chains he owns, some have asking prices as high as 400, 50,000. This is only $4,000, and it gets the most attention," Arik said.
