The StarDance (StarDance is the Czech version of Strictly Come Dancing) trophy was designed by the architect Jan Vlček. The award symbolises ten connected twigs in the shape of stars, which in the end bloom into a tree crowned with a symbolic crystal disco ball. The ten rods ending in the shape of stars symbolise the ten participating dance couples, while the ten hoops represent the ten rounds in the competition. The trophy, which weighs more than 5 kg, went to the victorious couple in the 2019 iteration of StarDance. The award is dominated by a faceted ball with a diameter of 100 mm, which has been hand cut, polished and subsequently adhered to the trophy base which has been hand cast from bronze. The bronze base has been ground and polished to achieve the required patina. The final combination of the raw bronze base and the precision cut crystal is flawless.
