Court Mounting

Court mounting is an excellent way to display military, emergency services, cadet, and civilian medals, ensuring they remain neat and uniform. Methods involve securing the medals in either Court Mount, Swing Mount and Bow Mount. These technique not only preserves the medals' integrity but also enhances their visual appeal.

Swing Mount

Swing Mount is traditionally mounted for WW1 and WW2 medals. 

All Medals can be Swing Mounted. Big difference is these medals swing and clang together when worn.. This can lead to damaging of the medals.

Costs can vary please inquire.

No warranty is offered for swing mount due to the high likelihood of damage.

 Bow Mount

Bow Mount is traditionally worn on female evening attire / business attire.

Bow mount can be made for full size medals and Miniature size medals. It is recommended not to have more than two bow mounts on your attire at any one time. If, you have additional medals it is recommended to have your medals court mounted. 

Costs can vary please inquire.

Miniature Medals  & Ribbon Bars

Undressed Ribbon bars are custom with 11.5mm pins. Devices or Numerical Numbers required for ribbon bars do cost extra for example (CD Rosset, UN#2) - See Picture to right.

Miniature Medals are customarily worn on Mess Kit or Business attire. These can be acquired for majority of medals at a cost ranging from $10-$40 per then plus the amount to court mount. Miniature medals are relatively inexpensive and allow you to wear your medals to different events that do not or may not call for Full Size medals to be worn.

Cost can very please inquire.

CAF Members Please Note: DND changes to undressed ribbon bars are now 4 per row instead of 3 ribbons per row.
