Grand Order Of King Tomislav
Velered kralja Tomislava
This is the premier 'Grand Order' in the Republic of Croatia's order of precedence. They all consist of sash, sash badge and star. The sash in every case is a glorious thing: white with one blue edge and one red one, the edges bearing an ornate looping gold pattern (or a double gold/yellow stripe on the ribbon bar). The Grand Order of King Tomislav was instituted on 20 June 1992, with a revision on 1 April 1995. It is awarded, according to the statutes, to those who have contributed to the improvement of the standing of Croatia internationally, development of international relations, etc... in effect, it is given to foreign Heads of State. The badge design is based around a large H with ornate scroll-work and red coral, with a central gold medallion bearing an image of a former Croatian monarch on his throne (still working this out, the statues are naturally in Croatian!). The star has the same central medallion. |
