We received orders of trophies for golfers in the past, so I made a new design just for a sample. These Golf Trophies in Gold, Silver and Copper finish are now available at Jojo Vito ( Metrodome) Showroom.

With the abundance of a ready made trophies available in the market  today— ranging from the cheapest plastic, to wood, stone,resin, to an expensive glass or crystal , semi precious stones and even precious metals like silver and gold , people continuously come to us for a personalized design of trophies. They want  one that is symbolic of their cause or goals. In fact aside from our new customers, we already have a number of corporate customers who consistently seeking our services.

History of Trophy Making

Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/3470422  By Mischa Weston-Green

To recognize  outstanding victories  Awards and trophies have been used since the ancient times. The English word trophy itself was derived from the French trophée in 1513, “a spoil or prize of war”, from Latin trophaeum meaning ‘monument  to victory’.

In ancient Greece, trophies themselves were made on the battlefields of victorious battles from captured arms and standards, and were hung upon a tree or a large stake made to resemble a warrior. These were often inscribed with a story of the battle and dedicated to various gods. Trophies made for naval victories sometimes consisted of entire ships (or what remained of them) laid out on the beach. To destroy a trophy was considered a sacrilege and an unforgivable crime.

The ancient Romans however kept their trophies much closer to home. They built magnificent trophies in Rome, including columns and arches atop great foundations. Unfortunately most of the stone trophies that once adorned huge stone memorials in Rome have been long  stolen.

In THE Middle Ages, chalices were often given to winners of sporting events at least as early as the very late 1600s. For example the Kyp Cup (made by silversmith Jesse Kyp), a small two-handled sterling cup in the Henry Ford Museum, was given to the winner of a horse race between two towns in New England in about 1699. Chalices, particularly, are associated with sporting events, and were traditionally made in silver. Winners of horse races, and later boating and early automobile races, were the typical recipients of these trophies. The Davis Cup, Stanley Cup, and numerous World Cups are all now famous cup-shaped trophies given to sports winners.
