The Order of the Crown of Georgia is the premier dynastic order of knighthood of the Royal House of Georgia.

The Order was created to recognize the supporters of the Georgian monarcy and the Royal House.[1] It is awarded by the Grand Master of the Order, currently Prince David Bagration of Mukhrani by motu proprio.[1]

Knights and dames of the Order wear a silver badge in the shape of a multirayed star uppon which is an enameled red cross pattée with a white outline. In the center is a circle displaying the Georgia flag and on a blue circle in the center the royal crown. In the intersection of each of the cross' arms are 7 silver rays.[1]
