Cricket World Cup Trophy

The ICC Cricket World Cup Trophy is presented to the winners of the Cricket World Cup.

The trophy was designed by Paul Marsden of Garrard & co and produced in London by a team of craftsmen from Garrard & Co over a period of two months. The trophy is now manufactured by Otte will Silversmiths in Ashford.
