While the giving of this award is the prerogative of [[the Crown]] for what reasons they deem fit, in general some level of skill, research and/or teaching is expected of members of this Order. <br /> <br /> As an arts award, the text of the Willow is written as being presented by the [[Queen]] and her [[King]] (rather than from the King and his Queen). Note; if the [[sovereign]] by right of arms is a female, this award would be given by the [[consort]] King. <br /> <br /> <br /> ==Precedence ==<br /> This [[Awards|award]] conveys [[precedence]] ahead of the Orders of the [[Dragon&#039;s Barb]], [[Cavendish Knot]], [[White Chamfron]] and [[Red Company]] and also gives [[armigerous]] status. It is equal in precedence to the [[Silver Oak]] and below a [[Grant of Arms]]. [[image:PrecedenceChart.png|thumb|Reference chart of Precedence]]<br /> <br /> ==Rights and Privileges ==<br /> Recipients of this [[Awards|award]] may use the letters C.W. after their name and are titled [[Lord/Lady]].
