Classic Design Rooted in Tradition

This timeless design features Saint George’s Cross — a bold red cross centered on a white field. The simplicity of this pattern gives it lasting visual strength. Historically, it served as England’s national emblem and appeared widely after the English Reformation, particularly in maritime settings where it was flown alongside the Royal Banner. Today, it continues to symbolize courage, faith, and national unity.

The First Flag Flown Over Mainland America

The story of the St. George Cross Flag is interwoven with early American exploration. In 1497, under the reign of King Henry VII, explorer John Cabot sailed beneath the red cross banner on his expedition to North America. When Cabot landed along the Labrador coast, it became the first recorded flag to fly over mainland America, apart from those carried by Viking explorers centuries earlier.

Present During Foundational Voyages

The St. George’s Cross also accompanied the Jamestown settlers in 1607 and the Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower in 1620. Through these defining voyages, it connected England’s legacy directly to the birth of the American colonies. As a result, this flag stands as a bridge between the Old World and the New, symbolizing exploration, endurance, and faith.
