Custom medals of honour & decorations

Custom orders of merit, made to full ceremonial form

We cut a die for the star, ribbon, and sash, then finish it with plating and enamel. Decorations run on the same tooling and the same line as our medals, so an order, a medal, a pin, and a plaque can share one approved design.

  • Woven ribbon bars & neck sashes

What we produce

Public & institutional honours

Decorations and sash orders for municipalities, public agencies, and institutions. Star bursts, radiating rays, and laurel motifs are struck into a die and finished with plating and enamel.

Merit & service decorations

Long-service, merit, and retirement decorations — from ribbon-bar pendants to pin-backed badges — made for formal award ceremonies.

Corporate honours

Anniversaries, hall-of-fame, and employee recognition orders. Paired with a case or velvet tray it becomes a formal award package.

Veterans & commemorative orders

Commemorative orders for veterans groups, memorial projects, associations, and societies. Ribbon colours and star designs are tailored to each organisation.

Specifications

Base form
Star, cross, shield, or medal-pendant forms — mounted on a ribbon bar, a neck sash, or a pin back.
Material & plating
Die-cast zinc alloy or brass, with gold, silver, copper, nickel, or antique plating — in gloss or matte.
Colour finish
Soft enamel (recessed colour), hard enamel (polished flush), or UV printing — with a clear epoxy dome for depth.
Relief
From flat 2D engraving to 3D relief, including the radiating rays, points, and wreaths typical of decorations.
Ribbon & sash
Pleated ribbon bars, neck sashes, and rosettes in your specified colours, woven to match your organisation.
Case & finishing
Serial engraving plus presentation cases and individual velvet-tray packing as add-ons.

These options combine freely. If you are not sure which combination fits, just tell us what the decoration is for.

Decoration design examples by use case

Live project images are embargoed until the decoration is awarded, so we show design references recreated generatively at the same quality. The star and ribbon designs shown here are generic examples and are not tied to any official state, agency, or corporate decoration.

How it works

  1. 1. Enquiry & artwork

    Send an emblem file, a sketch, or a reference image — we confirm feasibility first. Live project images are embargoed and never published; references are recreated generatively instead.

  2. 2. Proof & quotation

    We return proofs and a quotation reflecting the star, ribbon, sash, plating, and enamel options. Unit price varies with quantity and finish.

  3. 3. Die & sample

    Once artwork is approved we cut the die. On request we produce a pre-production sample so plating, enamel, and ribbon colours can be checked first.

  4. 4. Production, finishing & delivery

    After the run we handle serial engraving and presentation-case packing, then ship. Production time depends on quantity and finishing and is confirmed with your quotation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a decoration, a sash order, and a medal?

A decoration (order of merit) carries a star, ribbon, and sash in full ceremonial form; a sash order hangs from a ribbon; a medal usually hangs on its own. All three are made with the same die, plating, and enamel process, so a single design can cover the whole set.

Can you produce small quantities?

We produce from small runs to large volumes. Tooling and unit price depend on quantity, so tell us how many you need and we will quote to match.

How long does production take?

Production time depends on quantity and finishing — plating, enamel, ribbon weaving, and post-processing. We confirm the die-to-production schedule together with your quotation.

Are the gallery images actual products?

No. Live project images are embargoed until the decoration is awarded, so we show design references recreated generatively at the same quality. Final artwork is redesigned around the emblem you supply.

Can decorations, medals, and plaques be produced together?

Yes. Sharing one design across a decoration, a medal, a pin, and a plaque is common, and ribbons or presentation cases can be produced in the same order.

Do you make ribbons and neck sashes?

Pleated ribbon bars, neck sashes, and rosettes are woven in your specified colours. Tell us your organisation colours and we match them.

Can we use our emblem as-is?

We reproduce the artwork you supply. Confirming that you hold the right to the emblem, and that it will not be confused with an official state decoration, remains with you as the customer.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. Tell us the destination country and quantity and we will include the shipping method and cost in your quotation.

You do not need finished artwork

An emblem file, a sketch, or a reference image is enough for us to start the proof with you.

Tell us what you need and we will quote it

Leave your email and a line about your project. We reply with pricing, plating and enamel options, and the production schedule.

Default is 70mm diameter and 3mm thickness. Adjust if needed.

Choose the surface finish — it changes how the plating color looks.

Pick one if you already know. Leave blank and we will decide together in the consultation.

Please attach reference images of your medal design, split into front and back. Without an image it is hard to give an accurate quote. A photo, an example you like, or an AI-generated image are all fine.

Your contact details are used only to prepare and send your quotation, and are handled securely afterwards.
