NightRider Jewelry's "Royal Blood Lion" Ring Design Featured on FOX'S Reality Singing Competition TV Show "Masked Singer"
The Hit TV Show's Costume Designer Takes Not-So-Subtle Inspiration from Phoenix Area Artist and Jewelry Designer
Royal Blood Lion Ring VS Masked Singer Lion Mask

Fans of NightRider Jewelry have not missed the obvious similarities between The Lion costume featured on the show and the popular Royal Blood Lion, the signature ring created by artist Nick Ballantyne and added to the NightRider Jewelry Jawbone Collection in 2014. The show's elaborate lion costume features a glittering mask that recreates many of the ring's details from the gleaming gold, to the distinctive sweeps of the lion's mane, the facial expression, and the pattern of the gemstone settings.

However, after having seen their Royal Blood Lion design in a larger-than-life format on the small screen…they believe both fans of the show and loyal NightRider customers can agree on one thing: the source material for the lion mask does in fact rock.
Artist and NightRider Jewelry co-founder Nick Ballantyne, upon seeing images of both Toybina's concept sketch and the resulting lion costume, quipped "The real question here is, who is that masked singer?
