What the Champions League trophy looks like
The Champions League trophy is made of sterling silver. It weighs 8.5 kilograms and is 73.5 centimeters high.
The prototype of the Champions League trophy was made in 1956 by the Welsh royal family's foundry, garrard&co. The original Champions League trophy was designed with a sterling silver body with a marble base until 1966, when the marble base was abandoned and the entire trophy was made of sterling silver. The waist of the cup has four engraved supports indicating the four initial member countries of the European Football League; Germany, France, Italy and the Netherlands. The cup also features the letters "UEFA Champions League" in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian.
However, although the main body of the Champions League trophy is made of sterling silver, the value of this trophy cannot be measured in monetary terms for all the teams and players who have won the Champions League, which represents the highest honor and achievement in European club soccer.
