Use the ribbon on the left chest or on a multi-ribbon bar according to your organisation’s dress rules. It is also appropriate for collectors of military surplus and historical insignia who want an accurate, wearable representation of the Order's emblem.

Care and notes

Basic care and practical notes to keep the nastrino in good condition:

• Store flat and avoid heavy folding to preserve silk and rosette shape.
• Keep away from strong chemicals and prolonged moisture; clean gently with a soft, dry cloth.
• Choose the fitting (clip or screw) based on how often you will attach and remove the ribbon.
• Handle enamel and embroidered symbols with care to avoid scratches or wear.
• Verify placement with your organisation’s uniform regulations before wearing on duty.
