The official explaination follows:
As the first American high jewelry house, Tiffany and Co. has played a defining role in American luxury culture for nearly two centuries – making them the ideal collaborator to design the Honors medallion. The brand-new medallion features a gold disc etched on one side with a depiction of the Kenndy Center. The building is flanked by rainbow colors representing the breadth of the arts celebrated when receiving the Honor. The reverse side bears the Honorees’ names in script above the date of the Medallion Ceremony, December 6, 2025. The medallion hangs from a navy-blue ribbon, a color associated with dignity and tradition.
