award ribbon

An award ribbon is an award made from ribbon and presented to mark an achievement, such as winning a sports event. Such ribbons usually have a pin or other fastener with which the award can be attached to clothing, walls, or other surfaces.Award ribbons can be simply a flat piece of ribbon, a flat-folded ribbon, or fancier manipulations of the ribbon material, such as rosettes. A rosette consists ribbon that is pleated or gathered and arranged in a circle so that it resembles a rose, usually with streamer ribbons attached.Ribbons are usually, although not always, imprinted with information about the award, such as the name of the event, the sponsoring organization, the placement (such as first place, second place), and the date.
