Nova Scotia Flag Patch

Description

Proudly display your heritage or appreciation for Nova Scotia with our Nova Scotia Flag Patch. This embroidered badge features the iconic provincial flag of Nova Scotia, a powerful symbol of its Scottish heritage, its maritime identity, and its enduring provincial pride.

The Nova Scotia banner is a white field with a blue saltire (a diagonal cross, like an ‘X’), which is the Cross of Saint Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland. Superimposed over this blue saltire, in the center, is a smaller red lion rampant (standing on one hind leg with forelegs raised) on a golden shield. The blue saltire on a white field directly references the national flag of Scotland, emphasizing Nova Scotia’s strong historical and cultural ties to Scotland, from which its name “New Scotland” derives. The red lion rampant on a golden shield is taken from the Royal Arms of Scotland, further highlighting this connection and representing the province’s strength and royal lineage. This harmonious blend of colors and meaningful symbols creates a fabric emblem that vividly articulates Nova Scotia’s profound historical narrative, its deep Scottish roots, and its aspirations for a stable and prosperous future. The current flag was officially adopted on January 1, 1929, though the design dates back to 1858.

Our Nova Scotia 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 Nova Scotia flag badge remains firmly in place for years to come.

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