ABOUT THE TORCH
The design of the torch is drawn from the olive leaf's lines and its harmonious shape. The olive tree, one of the most powerful symbols of Greece, has been a sacred tree for Mediterranean nations for thousands of years, as well as the ancient symbol of the Athenian City-State. It is an indelible mark in Greece's mythology and art. The olive branch is recognized as a global symbol of peace and freedom.
Weighing 700 gr. and standing at 68 cm, the ATHENS 2004 Olympic Torch is designed to enhance the flame. Its fluid shape, dominated by curves, establishes the torch as the continuation of the flame itself in its free movement. The flame rises from the torch as the extension of the torchbearer's hand. Crafted by Greek designer Andreas Varotsos using the philosophy of "Pan Metron Ariston" (all things in moderation), the ATHENS 2004 torch combines aluminum and olive wood, with an emphasis on their natural colours. The result: a solid structure of beautiful simplicity.
Thank you all
