Alongside the memorial service for Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna, Ben Baller revealed a custom tribute chain he crafted to celebrate the memory of the late legend.

Taking to Instagram, Baller showed off the IF & CO. pendant and necklace dedicated to Bryant. The double-sided white gold pendant feature’s the Nike Sheath logo on one side and the late basketball star’s original jersey number on the other. The two-sided pendant is an homage to Gigi Bryant who wore No. 2 while competing in her father’s Mamba Sports Academy AAU team. Finishing up the design of the tribute piece are framing eternally set baguettes and a matching rope chain.

Take a closer look at the custom Kobe Bryant tribute chain Ben Baller crafted below.

In case you missed it, watch Beyoncé deliver an emotional rendition of “XO” and “Halo” to open Kobe Bryant’s memorial service.
