Trophy repair. A new sterling silver base.

Sometimes I get odd requests. A client came into my shop and asked if I could make a new ring for his trophy base. The old base had fallen apart so he made a new one in wood and wanted to add another silver ring.

The trophy dated back to 1930, so hopefully this new ring will last another 80+ years.

Wow, that looks like a great job! We get asked to custom plinth bands often, although we stock those bases.

Anyway, from an engraving perspective, always make sure the band can come apart from its base. Hope this helps.
