The star is similar to the badge, but it does not count with the top Chrysanthemum blossom. The badge is topped by a yellow enamelled Chrysanthemum in both the Cordon and the Collar. The badge consists of a four-pointed white enamelled star with 32 rays edged in gilt, each of the four points being a yellow enamelled Chrysanthemum blossom, and the central disc is a red enamelled sun. However, in 1888 Emperor Meiji instituted the distinction of the Collar into the order. Founded back in 1876 by Emperor Meiji, the order has only one grade: the Grand Cordon. The Supreme Order of the Chrysanthemum is the highest decoration awarded by the Japanese state.
Now that we have an explanation, lets learn about the Japanese Imperial Orders: Order of the Chrysanthemum Embed from Getty Images The small pins are worn at formal occasions in the daytime, when you want to honour the occasion without making it too formal.
The smaller badges may be worn when you are wearing the insignia of other orders, or at a Black Tie occasion where Orders are worn. The Sash and Star are more common and seen at White Tie State Banquets.
The ornate collars of an Order are only worn very rarely at White Tie events or on Uniforms. The wearing of the insignia depends on the occasion. Orders are accompanied by a varied amount of insignia, which can include a Sash with a badge worn at the hip, a Star, ornate Collars, Badges to be worn on the shoulders, and smaller Pins, and the awarding of specific items differentiate the different grades in each individual order, and/or depend on the orders themselves. However, these rules vary from country to country, and also depend on individual Sovereigns. Orders of foreign countries are usually awarded during State Visits, and are given according to rank, with the sovereigns receiving the higher order, the heirs the lower order, and the other members of the royal family participating in the visit receiving yet a lower one. Orders of their own countries are awarded to royals at birth, upon reaching the age of majority, upon marriage into the royal family, or after years of dedicated service to the country. National Orders are those which must be awarded with consultation from the government, and are official gifts, while the recipients of Dynastic Orders are at the discretion of the Sovereign, and many non-reigning families still award their Dynastic Orders, with no government authority. The Head of State is usually the sovereign of the order, and has varied authority on deciding their recipients. Each individual order has it’s own history, and in countries with multiple orders, has it’s own rank.
