Brought to us by Simmons Jewelery Co. (owned by Russel Simmons) are these jewelery pieces based on the cartoon ‘Sponge Bob Square Pants.’
They say that as people age, they crave items and characters from their youth. Thanks to the Simmons Jewelery Co., Sponge Bob fans no longer have to troll eBay for scary pre-owned toys, but can purchase a fine jewelery piece instead.
While it may sound as though I am poking fun, Sponge Bob does have some high profile fans, such as Marc Jacobs who has a tattoo of the cartoon sponge on his arm.
See the gallery to view Simmons Jewelery Co.‘s Sponge Bob pieces.
