Order of the Eastern Star Worthy Matron sash in tan cloth envelope. The sash is made from a purple velvet, and both edges are trimmed with gold braid. The left hand edge is also trimmed with a gold fringe, as are both ends of the sash. At the point where the sash joins at the hip, there is a gold dome-shaped button from which hangs a gold/black tassel. At waist height is a double-ended clip which joins the back and the front of the sash together. These clips are linked by four strands of gold beads. Affixed to the front of the sash at chest height are the letters W M in gold metal. On the right shoulder is the emblem of the Order, a five pointed star with each point a different colour. The back of the sash is lined with black cotton. The envelope has a closure consisting of two metal press studs, and the initials 'W M' are stitched in purple on the front.
