The Order of Miloš the Great had to be replaced as it was named after Obrenović himself. Initially, the Order of Karađorđe's Star was categorized as a senior state award, and organized into four classes. The Grand Cross of Karađorđe's Star, the highest class, consisted of a badge of the Order on a sash and breast star; a Grand Officer of Karađorđe's Star was decorated with a badge necklet and a slightly smaller breast star; a Commander of Karađorđe's Star was only awarded a badge necklet; and the recipient of the Order's fourth class, the Officer of Karađorđe's Star, would receive a small triangular chest ribbon.

The last attested occurrence is in 1115, although the title is still recorded by pseudo-Kodinos in the mid-14th century in the 34th place of the court hierarchy, between the primmikerios of the court and the megas archōn. According to the Klētorologion of Philotheos, the holders of the dignity were distinguished between eunuchs (ektomiai) and non-eunuchs (barbatoi, "bearded ones"). In addition to the insigne of their rank, a gold necklet (maniakion) adorned with pearls, the former had a special dress, a white, gold-adorned tunic and a red doublet with gold facings. The non-eunuchs were distinguished only by their golden collar (kloios), decorated with precious stones.. Pictorial evidence of the dress of prōtospatharioi in illuminated manuscripts, however, varies considerably over time.

Clearly inspired by Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the story follows the adventures of a young boy, Curly, who is led by a wise old owl into a subterranean world inhabited by the toys he knows from a local shop window. In the second half of the story, Curly visits a fantasy world of bearded elves and paper cut-out people, which he enters through the narrow door of his family's old grandfather clock. Two years later, in 1911, Shadwell applied his skills to music, writing the lyrics to Dreamland by British composer Harold Garstin (1875–1935) and then again, in 1914, to same composer's Love in a Garden. In between, he wrote the words to Love's Necklet, composed by the Canadian Laura Gertrude Lemon (1866–1924).
