About this deal

In 1954, the old base of the Jules Rimet Trophy was replaced with a taller one to accommodate names of more winners. The original Jules Rimet Trophy was never recovered and it was claimed that it had been melted down into gold bars. Dean, Jon (18 March 2016). "How my dog found the stolen World Cup trophy – put me in the frame" . Retrieved 8 March 2018. 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.

It remains the Three Lions’ only World Cup win to date and Queen Elizabeth II herself presented the trophy to Sir Bobby Moore. 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). The original base of the Jules Rimet Trophy, replaced before the 1954 World Cup, wasdiscovered by a FIFA staff memberat the organization’s headquarters in 2014. The 4-inch long base is on display at the World Football Museum in Zurich. Companies such as Mappin & Webb, Asprey and Tiffany & Co have departments dedicated to trophies and it’s not unusual for a sponsor or sporting body to devote a six-figure sum to silverware. ‘All of ours are handmade at our workshop in Bond Street – the [football] Premier League trophy takes 700 hours to create,’ explains Mr Gamble.In recent tournaments, FIFA, in conjunction with Coca-Cola, takes the new trophy around the world before the upcoming World Cup. It gives thousands of soccer fans the chance to experience football’s most coveted prize with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the trophy themselves. The note, written by Cugullere, said: “Dear Joe Kno (sic) doubt you view with very much concern the loss of the world cup...to me it is only so much scrap gold.” Nowadays, the trophy is awarded to the winners of the World Endurance Championship Six Hours of Silverstone, which is the opening round of the FIA World Endurance Championship. The last British winner was Anthony Davidson for Toyota Racing in 2014.

French sculptor Abel Lafleur designed the Jules Rimet trophy in 1930. The trophy specifications and measurements were 14 inches (35 cm) in height and weighed 8.4 lbs (3.80 kgs). The famous prize was made of gold-plated sterling silver, and it had a blue base made of lapis lazuli stone. Mr Denis Follows, secretary of the Football Association, described the theft as “most distressing” and said it cast “quite a cloud over our preparations for the World Cup.”
