Vatican City flag

The flag of Vatican City was adopted in 1929, and is made of two equal vertical stripes. The left side of the flag is a yellow-gold colour, whilst the right is white. On the white stripe is a coat of arms depicting a papal tiara and keys.

The gold and white background represents the 1808 flag of earlier Papal States. The papal tiara and crossed keys of St Peter have been added to this design. These are the keys to the kingdom of heaven Jesus is said to have given to St Peter. The golden key on the coat of arms represents spiritual power, whilst the silver key symbolises the worldly power of the papacy.

Whilst it is often depicted as a square, the Apostolic Nunciature to Germany stated in 2010 that the flag does not have to be square.

Your print options

Digital printing – For the budget conscious we offer a standard digital print option. Printed onto 115gsm quality knitted polyester these flags still have the same print quality as our other printed flags.

Handsewn – For an added touch of quality our handsewn flags are meticulously appliqued using 155gsm woven polyester by our UK based team of seamstresses. A handsewn flag is an investment so we would recommend adding anti-fray to help prolong the life of your flag.

Eco-friendly flag – For the more environmentally conscious customer we offer an alternative to the digitally printed standard knitted polyester which is made from recycled plastic items. It has the same durability, strength and versatility of its knitted polyester equivalent but with a much lower environmental impact.

Anti-fray provides extra protection to the hem to prevent fraying and prolong the life of your flag.

What size flag should I purchase?

We’d recommend opting for a 2 yard flag if your flagpole is 6 metres tall or a 2.5 yard flag if it is 8 metres or taller. Flags are finished with a rope and toggle so are ready to fly as soon as you receive them.

Fabric choice

Knitted polyester – This is the most common flag fabric. Your flag will be digitally printed onto 115gsm quality knitted polyester.

Handsewn – Giving an extra touch of quality to your flagpole our handsewn flags are meticulously appliqued using 155gsm woven polyester by our team of seamstresses based in the UK. A handsewn flag is an investment so we would recommend adding anti-fray to help prolong the life of your flag. It provides extra protection to the hem to prevent fraying.

Eco-friendly option

Eco-friendly flag – This revolutionary fabric is made from recycled plastic items such as PET bottles and industrial polyester waste which has been melted down into chips, then spun into yarn that is knitted to form a material. It has the same durability, strength and versatility of its knitted polyester equivalent but with a much lower environmental impact. We are the first UK supplier to offer an eco-friendly option rather than the standard polyester flags made from virgin plastic.

Anti-fray

An anti-fray netting can be added to your knitted polyester or handsewn flag to help prolong the life of your flag. It provides extra protection to the hem to prevent fraying. A handsewn flag is an investment so we would recommend adding anti-fray.
