Tiffany & Co. presents the 2022 Super Bowl trophy

Tiffany & Co. announces that its signature trophy, Vince Lombardi, will be presented at the conclusion of the Super Bowl. A testament to the inimitable technical and artistic skills of Tiffany’s craftsmen, the Vince Lombardi Trophy is a work of art that symbolizes not only the best of sportsmanship, but also the legendary creativity and craftsmanship of the American jewelry house.

For the record, the Vince Lombardi Trophy was designed and handcrafted by Tiffany & Co. for the inaugural Super Bowl in 1967. It symbolizes the pinnacle of soccer glory. In 1970, the trophy was renamed after Lombardi, the Green Bay Packers coach who led the Packers to victory in the first two Super Bowls. The trophy was originally designed by Oscar Riedener, former vice president of Tiffany & Co, who sketched the basic design on a napkin during a 1966 meeting with then-NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle and depicts a regulation-sized football in the kicking position.

The jewelry house entrusts the design to its most accomplished artisans, who bring the trophy to life over a period of approximately four months and requires some 72 hours of work in total. These master craftsmen combine time-honored techniques with cutting-edge innovations: from spinning, goldsmithing and chasing to hand engraving and polishing, to make the seven-pound, 22-inch sterling silver trophy. They handcraft the Vince Lombardi Trophy and more than 65 other trophies each year at Tiffany & Co.’s Hollowware Workshop in Cumberland, Rhode Island. Tiffany’s legendary Vince Lombardi Trophy will be presented during the Super Bowl on February 13 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.
