The New England Patriots have picked up their 2005 Super Bowl rings following the team's 24-21 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in February.

The 14-carat white gold rings have 124 diamonds, with a carat total of 4.94, and are estimated to be worth more than $15,000 each.

At 4.06 ounces, each ring weighs a quarter ounce more than last year's rings. The Patriots first ring ceremony after the 2001 season was held at a downtown Boston hotel.

Nearly all the players from last year's team attended the ceremony in Brookline, Massachusetts.

"It is definitely a closure to last year," New England Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady, said. "We celebrated more than we care to and now it's on to other things."
