The Grand Slam winners are awarded the Six Nations trophy (as tournament winners), but there is no special grand slam trophy – the Grand Slam is an informal honour recognising a Championship-winning team which has won all their games. A Grand Slam was therefore available in a total of 97 seasons to date.
The current championship trophy for the Six Nations Championship was designed and made in 2015 by Thomas Lyte, London silversmiths and Royal Warrant holders to His Majesty the King.

Like the modern Grand Slam, the Triple Crown was an informal honour to a team that won the Championship with straight victories.
