Flag banners

Embroidered flag banners

Flagbanners are an indication of high esteem and are normally donated to a club during the consecration of a new club flag or in the course of a jubilee.

The most precious of the banners are made in pure handwork with real gilded webs in an utmost top quality. Even the basic materials impress by their high value and extraordinary appearance. Normally, we used velvet or flag rep for a flag banner. Ornaments and motives are executed in a very natural way by applying the finest flat embroidery and artificial silk embroidery. For motives that are especially elaborate, we recommend the production of the flag banners in hand painting. The writings are hand-made on this flag banner, the sides equipped with exclusive laces and cords, the bottom tip is decorated by precious gold fringes. Apart from that, these banners exhibit a high quality metallic or pearl ornament. For the flag banners, a wooden crossbar hanger with golden cord has proved to be best. A metal hanging is available for a slight surcharge.

Types of flag banners

Flag banners are donated at consecrations and jubilees especially in the German States of Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg as well as in Austria.

Godfather's banner

In Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg as well as in Austria, it is common practice for the jubilee club and their Godfather club to donate a flag banner to each other. No matter if it is equipped with an expressive motive or just with a suitable ornament, the Godfather's banner will remind everybody of the event for many years to come.
Of course, we will give you good advice and clarify all questions that may occur in respect to the design of your Godfather's banner. Your wishes and notions for the flag banner can be executed individually. If you like, you can choose out of a huge fund of motives and different design proposals.

Mother of Flag/Festivity banner

The big honor to be chosen as the "Mother of Festivity" is usually paid back by the ladies by donating a richly garnished banner with ornaments, pearls or flowers. On the backside, there is space for embroidering the names of the participants.

Mourning banner

Often, a municipality donates a mourning banner, or the club has one made with the names of the deceased members embroidered in silver metallic thread. According to the occasion, our mourning banners distinguish themselves by special aesthetics, dignified design and high quality.
You also have the choice here between already existing motives or logos that are made on your own demand.
On the backside, or maybe also on the front, the names of the deceased members may be embroidered.

Schirmherrenband

In order to express his connection with the club, the patron donates a flag banner for the flag consecration. The leaders of a town often use the municipality crest for this purpose. When, e.g. the mayor takes on the patronage, the crest of the municipality or town is often embroidered on the banner.

Festausschussband

The committee can donate a banner e.g. for a foundation festivity or a flag consecration, with the names on the backside. As a rule, ornaments or a motive related to the club decorate such banners.

On the backside, the names of the festival or the club committee can be embroidered on. The flag banner will remind everybody of the festivity for a long period of time.

Flag ensign banner

The flag bearer or flag ensign can hand over a banner for the flag consecration in order to express his pride of this honorable task. The banner brings to mind in a well visible way who the bearer is. Flag ensigns are often responsible for the presentation of a flag for decades and show their deep connection with this task. A flag ensign banner is a good means to show this to the outside, as well.
