Description
Our Croatian flags are produced using high-quality nylon, a lightweight fabric that flies easily even in mild weather. The national tricolor and coat of arms are digitally printed for vivid colors and clarity. These flags are also fade-resistant, helping prevent sun damage to the design from direct sunlight.
Each flag has a strong canvas header and brass grommets for easy attachment to an outdoor flagpole. Additional grommets can be added to the fly corners for horizontal hanging on walls or fences.

Croatia Flag Meaning & History
The red, white, and blue tricolor has been used on several of Croatia’s national flags, going as far back as 1848. These are also the pan-Slavic colors used since the early 1600s. The current version of the Croatian flag was adopted on December 21, 1990, the day before the Constitution of Croatia was proclaimed.
The coat of arms features a red and white shield, known in Croatian as the šahovnica, or chessboard. The checkered shield was used as a symbol by the medieval Kingdom of Croatia. The five shields above represent different historical regions, from left to right: Croatia proper, Dubrovnik, Dalmatia, Istria, and Slavonia.
