Royal Rampant Flag (Scotland)
SKU: SCR35P
The Scottish Royal Rampant is the official flag of Scotland's Royalty. In the days when flags and banners were necessary to identify opposing elements in battle, King William I "the Lion" who lived from 1143 to 1214, adopted a heraldic device showing a rampant lion, the king of beasts, rearing up with three paws stretched out. This became the royal coat of arms in Scotland. The lion was also incorporated into the Great Seal of Scotland which was placed on all official documents. The lion rampant flag strictly speaking belongs solely to the monarch - though a Royal Warrant has been issued allowing it to be displayed as a token of loyalty to the crown. Scotland's other great flag is St. Andrews Cross which became a component of the Union Flag upon unification with Great Britain. The official State flag for Scotland is the Union Flag commonly known as the Union Jack. Flag Measures 36 in x 60 in and is 100% polyester with grommets for easy flying.
