In 1990, adidas continued the tradition of naming the World Cup ball in honor of the host country. Etrusco Unico commemorates the ancient Etruscan civilization and art, dating back to the 9th century BC. and flourished in the Apennine Peninsula, in today’s Italy. The inscription “Etrusco” is written on the ball in ancient Greek style, while “Unico” is written in the usual Latin letters. Of course, the Tango motif was left on this ball as well, and here three Etruscan-style lion heads were placed on it. The number three referred to the three layers that protected the inside of the ball. The bottom layer was made of a mixture of textile and latex for stability and tear resistance, the next neoprene was responsible for water repellency, while the outer polyurethane foam layer ensured abrasion resistance and good puncture characteristics.

About Etrusco Unico:

Production Year : 2022

Art Style : Acrylic

Ball Name : Slazenger 25 Challenge

Artist Name : Fatemeh Zarei

Size : 5

Weight (gr) : 370 – 382

Has a signature : Yes

Materials :

The Slazenger Challenge was made of high quality leather and entirely hand sewn. It was composed of 25 rectangular panels, joined together in a way that was very similar to the 1958 ball and which differed only in the panel which contained the valve. In the Slazenger
ball the valve was in the centre of a small panel between two other, even shorter panels.
The remaining panels were the same as the 1958 ball and the inflating system was the latest type valve – latex rubber. This ball provided excellent sphericity, and its composition was adopted over the years by other brands. The balls of the 1966 World Cup were
provided in three different colours: white, yellow, and orange. Although the most widely used model was the white one, in the memory of football fans the orange ball of the historic final of Wembley remains the strongest.

About Slazenger 25 Challenge :

The match ball used during the 1966 World Cup final, as England beat West Germany 4-2. Geoff Hurst famously scored a hat trick for England, but the ball was claimed by Helmut Haller and only returned to England in 1996. This object is displayed courtesy of Eurostar, Mirror Group and Virgin

Highlights:

Product Name : 1994 World Cup Painted Ball

Date of Registration : 02/01/2023

Category Art : Painting

Art Field : Visual Arts

Total Production : One Collection with Twenty Three Balls

Production Year : 2022

Art Style : Acrylic

Ball Name : Questra

Artist Name : Fatemeh Zarei

Size : 5

Weight (gr) : 388 – 398

Has a signature : Yes

Materials :

At the 1990 World Cup in Italy, a negative World Cup record was set in terms of goals (2.21 goals/match), so many blamed the ball Before the next World Cup, FIFA asked adidas to develop a ball that could score more goals. The 1994 World Cup was brought to the USA in part to promote soccer, but if viewers don’t see enough goals, they tune out of the games on TV and think soccer is a boring
sport. The changes to the ball were successful, as the American World Cup had a higher goal average (2.7 goals/match), which they have not been able to surpass in any World Cup since then.
And what were the changes on the ball? Well, the Questra was lighter and more controllable than its predecessor, which favored more skilled players. Five different materials were used during development, and its most significant innovation was the flexible but resistant outer polyurethane layer, which softened the force of impacts thanks to foaming, and it was also beneficial for the headers.
This is due to the fact that the ball was developed at adidas’ ball production center in France and tested by French, German and American professional, amateur and youth teams.

About Questra :

Name of the Questra ball comes from ancient world for the pursuit to the stars (the quest for the stars). Authors aimed to create a more responsive and light ball, what they got fully. By manufacturing the new ball from five different materials and enveloping it in polystyrene foam, Adidas made the Questra more waterproof and allowed for greater acceleration when kicked. Triads which used in the design of Adidas Questra, display the outlines of stars.

Product Name : 1954 World Cup Painted Ball

Date of Registration : 02/01/2023

Category Art : Painting

Art Field : Visual Arts

Total Production : One Collection with Twenty Three Balls

Production Year : 2022

Art Style : Acrylic

Ball Name : Swiss World Champion Match Ball

Artist Name : Fatemeh Zarei

Size : 5

Weight (gr) : 380 – 392

Has a signature : Yes

Materials :

The official match ball of the 1954 FIFA World Cup was composed of 18 panels with zigzag edges, perfectly interlocked to each other. (The same panel structure can be seen on many Mitre balls even today.) The ball was completely hand sewn and no longer had laces -just like its predecessor, the Superball from the 1950 World Cup. The colour of the ball was not dark brown any more, rather an attractive yellowish or hell orange. This made the ball more visible during rainy matches where the pitch contained mud. We can see lots of photographs in different newspapers and magazines from 1954 where the players are portrayed with the Swiss World Champion balls as this ball became by far the best selling World Cup ball compared to its predecessors.

About Swiss World Champion Match Ball :

this ball comes from the pre-adidas historical match ball set, it is the exact reproduction of the original Swiss World Champion balls as used at the 1954 World Cup in Switzerland.

Ball Name : Azteca

Artist Name : Fatemeh Zarei

Size : 5

Weight (gr) : 380 – 410

Has a signature : Yes

Materials :

A completely new model was developed for the World Cup in Mexico. The Azteca Mexico was a hand-sewn ball, and for the first time, synthetic material, rather than leather was used to produce it. The ball consisted of an outer polyurethane wearing coat and three lower layers, which mutually complemented one another with their different “Adicron” structures. These were intended to ensure the ball’s resistance, ability to retain its shape and its waterproof properties. With its never-before-achieved performance on hard ground, at high altitude, and in wet conditions, Azteca represented a massive leap forward for the game. Its elaborately decorated design was inspired by the hosting nation’s native Aztec architecture and murals.

About Questra :

Azteca ball – first ball which has been made of fully synthetic material. Triad used in the design of the ball, where were painted like Aztecs frescoes. The Adidas Azteca ball was quite an elegant ball with revolutionary design but even though it was still composed by 32 hand sewn panels.
