Although the British flag underwent a number of changes in the 17th century, the St. George's Cross continued as the official national flag. For seagoing ships, however, the official banner was the Union flag (better known as the Union Jack, and as the King's Colors), which combined England St. George's Cross with Scotland's St. Andrew's Cross (a white saltire on blue). In 1707, the Union flag became Britain's national land flag. Made from a high quality fabric blend of rayon, nylon and polyester our stick flags make great decorations. For use on tabletops, desks, to wave in parades, or to decorate flower arrangements; these versatile stick flags come mounted on a black plastic 10" staff with a gilded spear point.
