Our relationship with the NFL® began in 1959 when the National American Football Foundation commissioned Tiffany to create the MacArthur Bowl honouring General Douglas MacArthur. This award was later replaced with the Vince Lombardi Trophy®—one of the most iconic awards in sports, also made by Tiffany. Oscar Riedener, a former Tiffany & Co. Vice President, sketched the basic design for the trophy on a napkin during a 1966 meeting with then-NFL® Commissioner Pete Rozelle, and the rest was history.
The Vince Lombardi Trophy®
We have made the iconic Vince Lombardi Trophy®, presented annually to the NFL® Super Bowl® championship team, since the first Super Bowl® in 1967. Oscar Riedener, a former Tiffany & Co. Vice President, sketched the basic design for the trophy on a napkin during a 1966 meeting with then-NFL® Commissioner Pete Rozelle, and the rest was history. A mark of the pinnacle of gridiron glory, the trophy stands at 55.88 cm, weighs 3.9 kg and features a regulation-size American football in kicking position.
The AFC & NFC Championship Trophies
The Lamar Hunt and George S. Halas Trophies, presented annually by the NFL® to the winning teams of the American Football Conference (AFC) and the National American Football Conference, were first designed by Tiffany & Co. in 2010 and have been handcrafted by the House ever since. Each trophy requires approximately five months of labour.
