Historic Sweden Merchant Flag Hook Patch

Celebrate an important chapter of Scandinavian history with the Historic Sweden Merchant Flag Hook Patch from TAC-UP GEAR.

This premium woven patch faithfully reproduces the Swedish Merchant Flag used between 1844 and 1905, featuring the distinctive Union Mark in the canton. The design represents the era of the Swedish–Norwegian Union, when both kingdoms shared a common union symbol while retaining their own national flags.

Unlike today's Swedish flag, this historic version features the deeper blue shade used during the nineteenth century, giving the patch an authentic period appearance.

Often nicknamed "Sillsalladen" ("The Herring Salad") because of its colourful Union Mark, this historic flag remains a fascinating symbol of Scandinavian maritime and political history.

Manufactured using high-quality woven construction with full hook backing, the patch attaches securely to compatible loop panels on backpacks, jackets, outdoor gear, travel bags and display boards.

An excellent choice for collectors, Scandinavian history enthusiasts, museums, historical displays and military history collections.
