"The Family Order of Queen Elizabeth II is suspended from a yellow silk watered ribbon the same size width of her father's order, and has been made in two sizes. The larger size was given to Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth the Queen mother. These and five smaller badges were given at Christmas 1952."
