Designed by Andr Ricard and manufactured by Kromschr’¶der the torch is made of chrome-plated aluminum and plastic. It measures 67 cm (26") long and the round platform on top is 17.5 cm (6.75") in diameter. The silver stem/handle has "XXV OLIMPIADA BARCELONA 1992" scripted in gold-plating with the Barcelona Games emblem. The circular shape of the upper section is supposed to resemble a cauldron while the conical and triangular shapes recall an amphora and the Latin sail to give it a more Mediterranean character. This torch comes with a round stand 18 cm (7") in diameter made of white-painted ceramic material that allows it to display sitting up an inch higher than normal. The stand screws into the very bottom of the torch and can easily be removed for those purists out there. The internal flame area on top shows signs of being lit but there is little darkening from combustion visible on the surrounding platform. There is some significant wear on the black handle grip area at the lower end. The chrome maintains a nice shine throughout. Overall the torch presents wonderfully in NM-MT condition.
