Product Information

The Jules Rimet Trophy was the first iteration. It was used from 1930 to 1970. Brazil won it outright courtesy of becoming the first country in the history of the competition to become three-time champions (1958, 1962 and 1970). So far, eight different nations have won the FIFA World Cup. Uruguay was the first nation to have won the Jules Rimet Trophy, or one can say a World Cup trophy of any kind. Overall, the Jules Rimet trophy has exchanged hands between five different nations.

Following FIFA's decision to commission a new trophy ahead of the 1974 World Cup in West Germany, the story goes that they received 53 submissions for a new design. In 1954, the old base of the Jules Rimet Trophy was replaced with a taller one to accommodate names of more winners. World Rugby, attempting to provide some clarity, said the replica versions were "two-thirds the size" – though that's clearly not true of the 1987 version. Rodrigopulle, Elmo (11 April 2007).

Concerns about the safety of the Jules Rimet Trophy during World War II led to an unlikely destination for the much coveted prize for the duration of the conflict.Before the 2018 tournament, over 220,000 people across Russia and the world had the canoe to see the iconic trophy with their own eyes. I was fortunate to see it myself in 2018 while in Phuket, Thailand. The lesser-known name of the tournament “The Football Association Challenge Cup” is hand engraved onto the front of the trophy. Corbett eventually went on to hand the trophy over to the local police station and was detained for a while on suspicion that he might have been involved in the theft. He, however, had an alibi and got the clean chit. Many experts believe the new trophy is hollow. According to them, if it were solid gold, the trophy would weigh 70–80 kilograms (150–180 lb) and would be too heavy for the winning nation to lift. The official line is that the World Cup trophy is solid, made up of 30,875 Carats of 18 karat (75%) gold with a band of malachite on its base.

Ottorino Barassi, an Italian who was serving as the FIFA vice-president at the time, quietly removed the trophy from the vault of a bank in Rome and hid it in a shoebox under his bed during the entirety of the War. Awarded to the winners of World Cups held once every four years, the FIFA World Cup trophy is undoubtedly the most coveted title in world football. The current trophy that will be used for 2022 — known simply as the FIFA World Cup Trophy — is not actually the original award. It is the second version of the prize, having replaced the Jules Rimet Trophy ahead of the 1974 World Cup. It weighs in at 6.2kg (13.6lbs), compared to the 3.8kg (8.4lbs) of the of the Jules Rimet version — although the weight of it has actually been the subject of debate since it was commissioned, as fans speculate whether it is solid or, as some have claimed, hollow. What is the World Cup trophy made of and is it solid gold?The new regulations state that it remains in FIFA's possession, secured at its Zurich headquarters, barring ceremonial requirements like the Trophy Tour and during the FIFA World Cup main draws and the final presentation. Following England’s success in 1966, the FA had a replica of the Jules Rimet Trophy made to use in exhibitions instead of the real one. However, the English Football Association was prohibited by FIFA from doing so. When the FA returned the original trophy in 1970, the replica was put away for years.

Over the past four weeks, players from 32 nations dreamed of getting their hands on global football's most iconic piece of silverware and Argentina earned it when they survived a penalty shootout against France following a thrilling 3-3 draw. One such replica was also given to Nelson Mandela before South Africa hosted the FIFA World Cup in 2010. It was the only instance of an individual receiving an official replica of the trophy to date. The trophy, originally dubbed Victory and commonly called the Coupe du Monde (French for World Cup), was 35cm in height and weighed 3.8kg. It was constructed with gold-plated sterling silver and it had a blue base made of semi-precious stone called lapis lazuli.The FIFA World Cup trophy is 36.5 cm tall and is made of 6.175 kg of 18 karats (75%) gold. It has a circular base, 13 cm in diameter, made of two layers of malachite.
