Grand Officer Order of Leopold

The slide for the rank of Grand Officer in the Order of Leopold is a practical and compact way to wear this high Belgian distinction. It is intended for daily or informal use, when the full breast star is not worn.

The slide consists of a small horizontal rectangle of purple moiré ribbon, mounted on a broad ribbon featuring a gold galloon stripe on the left and a silver galloon stripe on the right, both characteristic of the Grand Officer rank. The sliding system fits directly into a slide holder, which is in turn attached to the clothing.

Thanks to the sturdy sliding mechanism on the reverse side, the slide can be attached easily and securely without the use of pins or clips. This version retains the recognisability of the distinction while offering a comfortable and discreet way to wear it for less formal occasions.
