I have a trophy that needs some serious repairs, it got vandalised on a fieldtrip in collage, and the lectuers are not happy as it is quite old and and as alot of sentamental value (but little cash value). It appears to be made of brass or another soft, brown metal. It has a number of dints in the cup and the stem is bent so that the cup and base are now touching ( this is what happens when strong people get drunk).
I feel this might be job for a jeweler or someone who works with metal.

If it's not made of a precious metal (gold/silver/platinum) I'd bring it to a panel beater.

Given that you seem to be in Cork, there's a trophy place in the Business Park on the Link Road in Ballincollig that might be able to help.
