It is constructed out of a die struck steel base that has been black painted. The obverse depicts a centrally placed "1914 1918" surrounded by a laurel leaf and berry wreath, that is open at the top and tied together at the bottom, which is in front of a patte style cross. The full back reverse reads "W. SCHH& Co.". The top has an integral bent over loop and ring which holds approximately 4 ½ inches of red, black and white rayon ribbon.
