The Order of Friendship (Орден Дружбы) is a state decoration of the Russian Federation, established in 1994. It rewards both Russian and foreign nationals for significant contributions to fostering better relations with Russia and its people.
The design was created by Alexander Zhuk, who also designed the earlier Soviet Order of Friendship of Peoples. The statute governing the order was later updated by several presidential decrees between 1999 and 2012.
The order has been awarded to diplomats, scientists, cultural leaders, and humanitarian figures worldwide for their role in strengthening international ties, cooperation, and friendship.
This brass museum reproduction faithfully reproduces the design and appearance of the original decoration. It is ideal for collectors of:
- Modern Russian orders and medals
- Post-Soviet decorations
