Thailand, Kingdom. A Most Illustrious Order of Chula Chom Klao in Gold, Grand Cross Badge
Finely produced in gold with red, white, pink, light green, dark green and blue enamels, weighing 35.6 grams, obverse centrepiece with the hand painted portrait of Chula Chom Klao, reverse centrepiece with the hand painted three elephants insignia of Siam, 48.7 mm x 78.8 mm inclusive of its crown suspension, on a full-length pink ribbon, glue residue evident on two pink star points where it butts the centrepiece on the obverse, extremely fine and extremely rare.
The Order was created by King Chula Chom Klao, also known as King Rama V.
The Order is conferred upon members of the Royal Family, important government officials, and foreign dignitaries and heads of State for meritorious service to the King.
The Order may be awarded to both men (Knight) and women (Dame).
There is a discrepancy in size between the Order grades awarded to men versus those awarded to women. The Dame awards are also worn on a ribbon that is narrower than the Knight awards, or on a bow ribbon from the grade of Dame Commander (II Class) onward.
The obverse inscription is a translation of the original Thai inscription on the pendant.
