Sashes

[Chanel]

Spanish orders
Order of Carlos III is pale blue with a white central stripe

Order of Hermenegildo is magenta with white stripes/edges

Order of Isabella la Católica is yellow with a white central stripe

Naval order of Merit is red and yellow. That might be the sash Felipe wears on that Vanity Fair photo.

That's what I found out, but I didn't find additional pics for Isabella la Católica. And I still don't know what's that simple pale blue one

Winter can you please possibly provide photos? I will do what I can to find some myself.

Thank You

I think Queen Elizabeth 2 had sashes ? because she had different pins from order of the Garter?

The Japanese sash - although it looks like the Emperor and Emperess are wearing two different sashes. 

The Japanese sash is different in a color by for males, and for women.


Grand Cordon of the Supreme Order of the Chrysanthemum (for males)




Grand Cordon of the Order of the Precious Crown (for women)




You could watch the kind of all Japanese sashes.

The Imperial Family's sash are "Grand Cordon of the Supreme Order of the Chrysanthemum" and "Grand Cordon of the Order of the Precious Crown".

Oops .. occurs to me that it is the Jordanian sash.

[moosey60]

Royals wear whatever sash it is of the country that they're honouring. I.e. Victoria and Silvia recently wore the Jordanian sash for Abdullah and Rania's state visit to Sweden. Also, the royals wore Norwegian sashes at Haakon and Mette-Marit's wedding. Additionally, in the picture of the Japanese visit to Norway (?), The Queen is wearing a Japanese sash (Yellow, with thin red stripes), the Empress is wearing a Norwegian sash. The Emperor is wearing a Norwegian sash aswell. Harold looks to be wearing a Norwegian sash too. I think that the Queen will normally wear the visiting country's sash, while the male monarch will wear the one of his own country.

That's what I've observed.

That observation escaped me.
Thanks .

[moosey60]

Hmmm...it's the highest female Jordanian order. The King has that chain-type thing...I don't know, it was somewhat discussed in the Jordanian State Visit forum over in the Swedish royal family archives.

Is this perhaps a South African sash or order?

I got a message off the The Scandinavian Royals Message Board

that there are two almost similar sashes where the Danish Royal Family and a Greek Order is concerned. What was said, was

Re: Order of the Elephant  Posted by Kelly on 12/10/2003, 6:07:05

No that's a Greek Order. See how it's worn on the right shoulder? The Elephant is worn on the left shoulder. And the Greek order has bands of a paler blue along each side. The Elephant doesn't.

Does anyone know which Greek order Nikolaos has? Does he have the light blue one (is it St George & St Constantine?) like his parents or the dark blue one (I think it's St Olga & St Sofia) like his sis-in-law?

Would it be possible to see a picture of this Greek sash with a "paler blue" along each edge of the sash ?

Oops ... here is the picture that was posted on the Scandinavian Royals Message Board.

What is the order of the sash Marie-Chantal is wearing? Does Alexia's husband Carlos Morales have a sash as well, or is his situation similar to Ari Behn's, who are "merely" the husbands of princesses so they don't have sashes. Whereas Mette-Marit and Marie-Chantal both have sashes because they are married to crown princes?

This picture is compliments of Count Von Schonborn_Wiesentheid
and shows Queen Elizabeth II wearing a sash which honours which country or order?

I've learned a lot about sashes, and am still learning.

There is a humungous number of sashes out there, and what I have decided to do, is open separate topics for each country that gives out sashes.

I realize the foregoing terminology might not be entirely correct, but seeing I am still a learner at this, I trust the more knowledgeable on this MB will give me the benefit of the doubt at the moment.

To summarize, briefly, I've learned that
1. Belgium appears to have only one (1) sash.
2. Luxemburg appears to have only one (1) sash.
3. The Netherlands has at least two (2) sashes.

4. Great Britain has at least two (2) sashes.
5. Spain has numerous sashes.
6. Greece has three if not more sashes.

7. Norway might have two or more sashes.
8. Denmark has two or more sashes.
9. Sweden has two or more sashes.

10. Jordan appears to have two sashes so far.
11. Japan seems to have a lot of sashes.

12. Germany has an official sash, and Prince Ernst August might have a separate sash.
13. Finland has an official sash.

Also, sashes appear to be part of chivalric orders ... which is something I never ever imagined and really opens the field far more than I would like. Perhaps some-one else might want to take the lead on chivalric orders, garters, stars, chains, etc?

Crown Prince Frederik is wearing the sash of Thailand, I believe.

[Alexandria]

Hard to make out the golden yellow sash Queen Margrethe is wearing with all the vibrant colours of her own gown, but this is also the sash of Thailand, perhaps the highest honour there is?
