Featured here is a torch from the 2016 Rio Summer Olympic Games. The following referenced from a July 9 2015 DisegnoDaily.com article goes into detail on the design aesthetics and relay from the Rio Games:

“São Paulo-based Chelles & Hayashi designed the 2016 Olympictorch with an introduction of moving components: when the torch isignited five segments automatically expand vertically to revealbrightly colored resin sections each symbolizing a different naturalelement. The torch is made from two materials: recycled aluminum andresin. It measures 63.5 cm when contracted and 69 cm when expanded andweighs around 1.5 lbs. As well as representing the colors of theBrazilian flag each of the resin segments symbolize natural elementsnative to Brazil. The segments start with a deep dark blue whichrepresents the ‘floor’ its wavy shape inspired by the curvature ofCopacabana’s shoreline and then graduates to a lighter bluerepresenting the sea then green for Brazil’s mountains and valleys andfinally the yellow of the sun. The torch features a grip embellishedwith a triangular pattern to aid the torchbearers handle during therelay. The triangular design also represents the three professed valuesof the Olympics: friendship respect and excellence. The flame will becarried by 12000 torchbearers through 300 towns and cities in Brazil ajourney that lasts 100 days and culminates on August 5 2016 at theOlympic opening ceremonies in Rio de Janeiro.”

Torch was presented to us as used and shows very light use with really only the top burner section showing any wear from the flame. The rest of the piece remains in immaculate condition. It comes in its original brown presentation box. (Note: these are difficult to close with the spring design of the torch.)
