Ribbon rosette awards come in many sizes from 1 Tier (1 layer) up to super sized rosettes of (as standard) 20 Tiers. They can be glued together or sewn, however the centre disks always need to be stuck on with glue. A ribbon rosette is made up with card backing disks to attach the pleated ribbon onto thus make the tiers of the rosette.

Smaller rosettes are usually worn separately. A rosette / r oʊ ˈ z ɛ t / is a small, circular device that is typically presented with a medal. The rosettes are either worn on the medal to denote a higher rank, or for situations where wearing the medal is deemed inappropriate, such as on a suit.

The six-petal rosette is common in 17th to 20th century folk art throughout Europe. In Portugal, it is common to find it in medieval churches and cathedrals, as the engraved signature of a mason; but also as decoration and symbol of protection on the chimneys of old houses in Alentejo (at times together with the lauburu, or with the pentagram).
One of the earliest appearances of the rosette in ancient art is in early fourth millennium BC Egypt. [2] Another early Mediterranean occurrence of the rosette design derives from Minoan Crete; Among other places, the design appears on the Phaistos Disc, recovered from the eponymous archaeological site in southern Crete.
