    Hi Beufighter,

    It does not necessarily have to be a ribbon bar with lots of awards represented!

    There are different ribbon sizes, most are 16mm wide, some are 25mm in width.
    Here is a small example from my collection. The long ribbon bar at the bottom actually uses 32mm wide ribbons!!

    I have a few ribbon bars that may fit your tunic. Drop me a PM if interested.

    Kind regards
    Pierce

      Hi beufighter,

      Pierce is dead on, and I think it just depends on what look you are going for. The most common ribbons are 1,5cm in length, so it could just be a 6-ribbon bar for your loops. Could even be less; many times soldiers had extra loops there which were only used for the longer medal bar. You see period photos sometimes where a ribbon bar is in wear and a loop or two toward the collar remains unused. So it really depends.
