Stepby Step on Vince Lombardi Replica Trophy

‍

‍

Trophy Overview

The Vince Lombardi Trophy is given annually to the victorious team in the National Football League’s Super Bowl championship game. The original trophy itself is crafted from sterling silver by Tiffany &Co. It was an immense privilege for LA Set Construction to be a part of this highly anticipated and exciting final game. Our client requested an exact duplicate of the trophy, and we made great efforts to fulfill their request.

‍In the Making

‍

The trophy’s foundation was fabricated from highly dense foam. High density foam has a robust cell structure since it weighs a lot per cubic foot. This adds to the material's extreme durability.

‍

The structure was then hard coated. With the hard coating it is designed to guard against abrasion and impact.

‍

After hard coating it, it is then sanded and prepped for the following step.

‍

The most important part of fabricating this trophy structure was the color. We had to be very mindful when it came to the exact color that our client desired. Our client wanted an exact replica of the actual trophy. In this case, paint would not leave the structure to be sterling silver. Our team decided and communicated with our client about wrapping the structure in a chrome vinyl. With wrapping the structure in the chrome vinyl, it would be the perfect match to the sterling silver from the original trophy. When applying the vinyl our team had to be very prestigious and careful not to leave any air bubbles behind. When applying the vinyl it’s about being clean and precise. If the surface is not clean, it would leave bumps on the vinyl. Our client was blown away with how detailed this trophy came out and they couldn’t be happier with the work provided.
