Despite getting swept in the World Series of that year, the 2005 Houston Astros were nonetheless a great team that performed valiantly in their season, bringing home the National League championship and their franchise's first trip to the big games. This championship ring, commemorating that victory, is a beautiful size ten ring, in ten karat gold. On top, the Astros' team logo, inlayed with diamonds, sits atop a background of precious red stone, and is surrounded by the words "NATIONAL LEAGUE CHAMPIONS," as well as eight more diamonds. One side features an engraving of Minute Maid Park with "Astros" written above and "2005" below. Opposite that lies an engraving of Texas with the Astros logo over it, with the words "REUTEMAN FIRST WORLD SERIES" above it. The ring is in perfect condition, and comes with a felt-interior, glass-in-wood display case with "Houston Astros National League Champions," "FIRST WORLD SERIES," and the Astros over Texas logo frosted into the window.
