Product Description
The State Seal depicted on the flag of Virginia, which is blue, dates almost from the Declaration of Independence. It shows Virtue, dressed like an Amazon and armed with sword and spear, trampling down the figure of Tyranny, whose crown is fallen and who grasps a broken chain and a whip. The motto is Sic Semper Tyrannis or "Thus ever to Tyrants."

Please Note:
Virginia is one of the few states that dictates fringe options in color other than gold, in this case white. Two options are offered per Virginia code regarding the state flag. Official use dictates the fly end only with fringe, whereas in most real use instances customers prefer the fringe on all three sides of the flag. We offer the White Fringe on ALL 3 Sides.
