Measures 175cm x 115cm. This is a well-worn flag with some damage but stills makes for a great display piece. An original item that isn’t readily available in Australia. Also known as the “Oranje, Blanje, Blou” or “The Union Flag,” this historical flag represented South Africa from 1928 until 1994. The flag consists of a horizontal tricolour of (from the top of the flag to the bottom side of the flag) orange, white, and blue; a design which was based on the original Dutch flag. In the centre of the flag are three smaller flags – the Union Jack placed towards the hoist side of the flag, the flag of the Orange Free State hanging vertically in the centre, and the Transvaal Veirkleur placed towards the fly side of the flag. The flag was first hoisted on 31 May 1928 and was replaced with a new design on 20 April 1994. Please use the pictures to form the best description.
