The cup of the international tournament Sky Grace

The cup is the main trophy of the unique Sky Grace tournament. For many months it was being created by the best specialists of the studio of stone-cutting art "Svyatogor" in Yekaterinburg and the workshop of decorative and applied art "LiK" in Zlatoust (Chelyabinsk region). The сup layout was designed using the latest 3D technologies. 

In the work of the master, rare noble stones were used. They laid out the entire design of the cup, which is made in the style of Russian mosaic. The cup is decorated with silhouettes of gymnasts made of white kaholong — a mineral of extraordinary beauty. In the hands of the athletes — all five subjects of rhythmic gymnastics, made of blue agate: jump rope, hoop, ball, clubs, ribbon. Another striking detail is a gilded statuette of a gymnast performing the legendary element of Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva, "a drop".

The names of all the winners of the international tournament Sky Grace will be immortalized on the сup. The name of the first champion, Lala Kramarenko, has already been engraved on the base of the trophy.

The сup will be permanently stored at the Alina Kabaeva Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy. The winners of the tournament will receive a mini-copy of the trophy as a keepsake.
