Economy St. Andrew’s Cross Flag

Description

Looking for an accessible way to show your connection to Scotland, the country that is part of the United Kingdom? Our economy St. Andrew’s Cross flag, more commonly known as The Saltire, is a practical choice. This distinctive flag features a white diagonal cross (a saltire) extending to the corners of the flag, set against a blue field.

The white saltire represents the cross of Saint Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland, who is believed to have been crucified on an X-shaped cross. The blue field is said to represent the sky, truth, and loyalty. According to legend, the flag’s design appeared as a white saltire in the blue sky to King Óengus II of the Picts before a battle in the 9th century, leading to a victory attributed to St. Andrew’s intervention. As the official national flag of Scotland, it is flown by individuals, businesses, and government bodies throughout the country and by Scottish communities worldwide.

It’s made from economy polyester. This material provides a budget-friendly option, especially suitable for short-term events, indoor environments, cultural celebrations, or expressions of Scottish heritage. The flag is lightweight and will move easily with a gentle breeze. Each flag includes 2 metal grommets, making it convenient to attach to a flagpole or other fixture. We offer this flag in Standard Sizes: 2′ x 3′ (24″ x 36″) and 3′ x 5′ (36″ x 60″). The flag features a single-sided print with a mirrored reverse, meaning the design is visible on both sides, though the back will be a mirror image.

While this budget-friendly St. Andrew’s Cross flag is a simple solution for quick setups or interior decoration, it’s important to note that economy polyester sacrifices some longevity and colour accuracy compared to higher-grade flags. This makes it a great fit for temporary use, themed parties, classroom settings, or as a cost-effective way to add a touch of Scottish pride indoors.

It presents the iconic colors and design of Scotland, offering a visible statement when budget and temporary use are key considerations.
