Heraldic Banner with Double Chevrons – Blue & Yellow
Construction and Usage
The banner is sewn from sturdy 100% cotton, which has a natural texture and a matte appearance, avoiding the look of cheap modern synthetic substitutes. The yellow chevron motif is not printed but carefully sewn on (appliqué), which increases both the durability and the aesthetic value of the flag. The top edge is equipped with textile loops approx. 5 cm (2 inches) long. Thanks to these, you can easily slide the banner onto a wooden pole, spear shaft, or halberd. On the side, you will find a practical string to tie the lower part of the banner to the pole. This is an important detail – it ensures that the fabric does not bunch up in the wind and your emblem remains legible at all times.
Historical Context: Colors and Shapes
In the Middle Ages, identification on the battlefield was a matter of life and death. In the dust and chaos, warriors oriented themselves by the colors and symbols of their lords. Blue often symbolized loyalty and truth, while yellow (representing gold) stood for generosity and nobility. The chevron motif (resembling a roof) is often interpreted in heraldry as a symbol of protection or architecture, but above all, it was a geometrically distinct element that was clearly visible from a distance. Smaller banners of this type often served to mark the position of lower commanders or a squad's assembly point.
Care Instructions
Cotton is a natural material that requires gentle handling to ensure the colors retain their vibrancy:
- Wash the product exclusively by hand in lukewarm water.
- Beware of color bleeding – blue and yellow could run into each other if washed carelessly in hot water.
- Do not tumble dry; let it air dry naturally.
- Iron at a medium setting (cotton), ideally through a cloth to avoid damaging the stitching.
Please note: This item includes the textile banner only. The wooden pole or other accessories shown in the photos are not included in the package.
