Grand Cross Order of the Crown

The Grand Cross breast star in the Order of the Crown is crafted exclusively in fine silver and forms part of the highest class within this Belgian order of merit. It is worn on the left side of the chest, in combination with the broad sash from which the Commander’s badge is suspended.

The design consists of a large silver radiating pattern with a facetted finish, where alternating long and short rays create a striking play of light. Superimposed is a gilded Maltese cross with white enamelled arms and golden rays between the arms. At the centre is a deep blue enamelled medallion bearing a gilded royal crown in relief, surrounded by a narrow gilded border.

The reverse is fitted with a sturdy pin and clasp, ensuring the breast star is worn securely and stably. The Grand Cross is supplied as a complete set, including the broad sash, the Commander’s badge, a luxury case, and the matching rosette.
