Shown here is 1. The class was created after the change by Prince Leopold IV. worn on February 23, 1910 as a neck cross. Previously, the 1st class was worn with a crown on the ring on the ribbon on the left side of the chest or women on the female loop on the left shoulder. This badge of honor was established on June 9, 1898 by Count Regent Ernst von Lippe-Bisterfeld. This award is awarded to people with special merits in the field of science and art. The Badge of Honor was awarded in 3 classes. All other things being equal, in the form of the Lippa rose, the individual classes are distinguished as follows: the 1st class has an open silver crown on top, attached by means of a hinge, a small ring passes through the imperial apple of the crown, and an elongated ribbon ring passes through it. Class 2 has 3-leaf oak foliage suspended in a small ear. The ring of the tape is soldered behind. 3rd grade has on top of crossed petioles a soldered ordinary ear with a ribbon ring. It was presented exclusively by the prince with a diploma. The reward was subject to return after the death of the borrowed. The design of the Lipp rose was made by the sculptor A. Schreitmüller from Dresden. Manufacturers from 1899 to 1914 were the mint of Richard Diller in Dresden and from 1917 the court jeweler K. F. Zimmerman in Pforzheim. The Lippa Rose with a 1st class crown was awarded a total of only 34 times until 1918. Source: Rainer Schwark, order and badge of honor of the principality of Lippe Detmold 1778-1933.
