The ribbons of the Paris 2024 medals are as deeply designed as the medals themselves. Inspired by the Eiffel Tower’s latticework, the ribbons for the Olympic medals are a deep, striking blue. The Paralympic medals feature a rich, deep red ribbon, reflecting the “Venice red” and “red-brown” hues of the Eiffel Tower’s original paint. These colour choices celebrate Parisian history and add a distinctive flair to each medal.
