History of the Palme d 'Or Award

Cannes International Film Festival was founded from 1946 to 1954. The highest prize is called the "International Film Festival Award". The director who wins this award usually gets a work of art created by a contemporary artist as a reward.

1954, the organizing committee of the film festival invited several jewelry designers to design trophies for the film festival, with the theme matching the natural environment of Cannes. Designer Lucienne Lazon was inspired by the palm trees that can be seen everywhere on the Cannes waterfront and designed the Palme d 'Or Award. At the same time, palm is the symbol of Cannes, which is very consistent with the purpose.

From 65438 to 0955, the Palme d 'Or Award became the trophy of the film festival for the first time. During the period from 1964 to 1974, the Palme d 'Or won the title of "International Film Festival Award" again. Since 1975, the Palme d 'Or has been fixed. From 65438 to 0998, Swiss jeweler Chopard modernized the trophy to make it more modern and dynamic.
