A Brazilian soccer fan has been making replica FIFA World Cup trophies for more than 30 years, drawing attention from local communities and visiting celebrities alike. According to multiple reports, artisan Jarbas Meneghini Carlini has devoted decades to handcrafting the trophy replicas, producing pieces that resemble the official World Cup award. The reports describe the craft as a source of joy and pride for fans who want a keepsake connected to football’s biggest tournament. While the articles emphasize the long-running nature of the work—over three decades—they do not indicate any official partnership with FIFA or any change in the artisan’s process over time. Instead, they focus on how the replicas have become part of the cultural landscape around the sport, with Carlini’s creations appearing to appeal both to everyday supporters and to higher-profile figures who seek memorabilia or distinctive handmade objects. Across outlets, the central shared details are Carlini’s identity, the length of his work, and that he creates replicas of the FIFA World Cup trophy.
