Iceland Flag Patch

Description

Proudly display your heritage or appreciation for Iceland with our Iceland Flag Patch. This embroidered badge features the iconic national flag of Iceland, a powerful symbol of its independence, its unique natural environment, and its enduring national pride.

The Iceland banner features a red Scandinavian cross, fimbriated (bordered) in white, on a dark blue field. The vertical bar of the cross is shifted to the hoist (left) side, in common with other Nordic flags. The dark blue field represents the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean surrounding Iceland and the dark volcanic rocks and mountains that characterize its landscape. The red cross symbolizes the fire from the island’s volcanoes and the blood shed during its struggle for independence. The white fimbriation (the thin white border around the red cross) signifies the snow and ice that cover much of Iceland, and the geysers and hot springs that bubble beneath the surface, also representing the purity of the Icelandic people. This harmonious blend of colours and meaningful symbols creates a fabric emblem that vividly articulates Iceland’s profound natural beauty, its powerful geological forces, and its aspirations for continued peace and sovereignty. The current flag was officially adopted on June 19, 1915, and formally established as the national flag on June 17, 1944, upon the establishment of the Republic of Iceland.

Our Iceland mini flag patches measure 1.5″ x 2.5″ (approximately 3.8 cm x 6.3 cm), making them an ideal size for personalizing a wide range of apparel items. Each patch comes with an iron-on backing for quick and easy initial application to most fabrics. However, for the most secure and permanent attachment, especially on garments that will be frequently washed or endure heavy use, sew-on installation is highly recommended. This ensures your Iceland flag badge remains firmly in place for years to come.

Whether you’re a traveler, a collector, or simply a proud citizen, our national flag patches are the perfect way to express yourself.
