The Junior Eurovision 2017 winner’s trophy has been revealed.
The EBU have revealed the design for the Junior Eurovision winner’s trophy today, as the glass piece arrives at the Olympic Palace in Tbilisi. The trophy, designed by Kjell Engman of Kosta Boda, will be given to the winner of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest this year, and for subsequent years to come. Kjell Engman has been working as a glass artist for thirty years, and his creations are currently being displayed in various exhibitions worldwide.
Kjell said:
The whole microphone is supposed to be in clear glass with color lines inside the upper part of the microphone. These color lines symbolize sound streams that flows. It’s also these colors we think you can let your fans vote about
