Antonio Brown Owes Celeb Jeweler $1 Mil After Failing To Fight Diamond Heist Case

Antonio Brown has been ordered to cut a high-profile jeweler a check for over $1 million … this after he failed to fight a lawsuit that the diamond expert slapped him with last year.

TMZ Sports broke the story … Shuki International — a world-renowned businessman who’s been the jewelry guy for high-profile celebs like Floyd Mayweather for years — sued AB back in April 2023 after he claimed the former NFL star borrowed a bunch of his prized items in 2022 but never returned them or paid for them.

In his lawsuit, Shuki said he gave AB a pair of his “Shuki International” diamond fingers — which the jeweler said cost $500K apiece — under the premise that Brown would eventually give them back … or simply cough up the dough for them.

Shuki said he also handed over a rose gold black diamond version of the finger piece, a white gold chain, and a ring — all with the same expectation.

Yet the jeweler claimed Brown failed to ever return the pieces or hand over the money … so he asked a judge to force AB to fork over $1,095,000 for it all.

And, after Brown never responded to the suit, a judge issued a default judgment for Shuki last week.

Shuki told us he attempted to reach out to Brown over the decision on Sunday … but the ex-Buccaneers wideout never returned his call. He added that he’s disappointed over the whole matter — considering the two used to be close.

Brown, meanwhile, was just seen out in LA with one of Shuki’s diamond fingers earlier this month … showing it off to our photog on Rodeo Drive.
