District of Columbia Flag 4×6 ft. Nylon with Pole Sleeve and Gold Fringe for Parades, and Indoor Display

Description

The flag of Washington, D.C. consists of three red stars above two red bars on a white background. It is an armorial banner based on the design of the coat of arms of George Washington, first used to identify the family in the 12th century, when one of George Washington’s ancestors took possession of Washington Old Hall, County Durham, northeast England. As elements in heraldry, the stars are properly called mullets.
