North West got her mom Kim Kardashian a birthday gift befitting of a hypebeast.

The mogul, who turned 44 on Monday, Oct. 21, took to Instagram Stories to share a video of the diamond necklace her 11-year-old daughter gifted her.

The sparkling piece features a diamond tennis chain and gold name plate with an engraving that reads "Skibidi Toilet" (a reference to the viral computer graphic web series). On the back, the plate is engraved with "Love, North" and includes the date.

According to jewelry expert, the 'obscure' custom piece could be worth up to $20,000. Olivia Landau, CEO of jewelry brand The Clear Cut, estimates that each diamond on the necklace contains roughly .08 to .10 carats.

"It also appears to be a solid plate engraved 'Skibidi Toilet,'" Landau tells PEOPLE. "The estimated value of this necklace could be around $15-20k."

Landau also shares that the piece combines two major trends right now — tennis necklaces and customizable name plates.

It's not exactly surprising that North, who is already making her mark as a style icon, would pick out such a trendy piece for her mom.

North, who is the eldest child of Kim and ex-husband Kanye West, recently spoke with Kim about for Interview Magazine, where the pair discussed North's style influences.

In a clip of their chat posted by Kim on her Instagram Stories, she asked North, “What’s your favorite style right now?”

“I like streetwear and ’90s. Tyler, the Creator; my dad; me!” North replied.
