country of origin. (Colour / images on the web are a used as a guide
only). Sometimes the actual shape may vary from the actual flag.
All flags come with two brass eye-lids for
flying the flag & are double stitched to provide strength.
The standard 5ft x 3ft (1500mm x 900mm) size
flag is by far the most common size. Other sizes are available, but
are much less popular
Flags are made for flying outdoors & these
flags are no exception. However, these flags are made from polyester
(Not canvas like some are) & are sold as souvenir / value flags.
Therefore we recommend are only flown in light weather conditions
