The national flag of Wales is available in 3' x 5', 4' x 6', and 5' x 8'. All sizes are made of 100% nylon and are finished with heavy polyester canvas headings and brass grommets. Made in the USA with beautiful, brilliant colors, our Wales flag is constructed with 100% nylon for the most demanding commercial and residential uses and is resistant to the wear and tear of sun and rain. These Wales are meticulously printed and are constructed for durability.
The Wales flag was granted official status in 1959, but the red dragon itself has been associated with Wales for centuries. The origin of the red dragon is a myth. One possible theory is that the Romans brought the emblem to what is now Wales during their occupation of Britain in the form of the Draco standards born by the Roman cavalry. The green and white stripes of the flag were additions by the House of Tudor. Green and white are also the colors of the leek, another national emblem of Wales. |
