Ribbon bar of the order

The Order of the Renaissance (Arabic: وسام نهضة عمان, romanized: Wisam al-Nahdat al-Oman) is an order of Oman.[1]

History

[edit]

The order was instituted in 1973 by Sultan Qaboos bin Said as a unity or development medal. Three classes of the order where later created with the original medal becoming a separate fourth class. It is awarded to people who have contributed significantly to the development of Oman.[2]

Insignia

[edit]

The insignia was created by Spink & Son with some changes over the years.[2] The ribbon of the first three classes is white with a purple and green striped border. The first class has a star and sash ribbon with a badge, the second class has a star and a neck ribbon with a badge, and the third class has a neck ribbon with a badge. The badge is an eight pointed star with alternating purple and green enameled points and the national emblem of Oman in the center on a white enamel background with a green enamel border. The first class badge also has silver five pointed stars between each enameled point. The star is the same design as the badge with a background of silver rays behind the enameled points.[3]

Fourth class ribbon

The fourth class is the original medal and has a different ribbon from the top three classes. It is twelve equal stripes of purple, green, and white with an eight pointed star of alternating purple and green as the pendant badge.[2]
