🏴 National flag of Ukraine with grommets and double stitched edges to reduce fraying.

✍️ The Design: The national flag of Ukraine has two equally sized horizontal bands of blue and yellow. The colors of our flag appear a bit darker than some may be used to. But rest assured we are using the official colors stated by the Ukrainian Government.

Size: 3" x 5"

Our flags are durable 200D polyester (most flags you'll find on the internet are cheap ~75D). In our testing, we selected 200D as the perfect flag material; anything heavier doesn't fly well and the "back" doesn't get enough ink, anything lighter feels cheap and wont last very long.

We print this flag as a one-sided print and make sure that the back has ample (around 90%) bleed-through.

Each flag is folded by hand on our dining room table and ready to be used on a flag pole, boat, hung on a wall, or to proudly march with.

The Ukrainian community and supporters came together at Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi early on the morning of Saturday 5 November to unfurl a 18m x 12m Ukrainian flag in a gesture of international friendship for the people of Ukraine and to raise funds for the Ukraine Crisis Appeal.

The exhibition, which opened to the public on Friday 21 October, includes a Ukraine Showcase as one of the highlights with artworks by Dmitriy Grek, Egor Zigura, Nikita Zigura and Oleksii Zolotar, curated by Viktoria Kulikova, Art Director at Abramovych Art Agency from Kyiv. The not-for-profit organisation which runs the exhibition is donating its commission on the sale of the Ukrainian sculptures to the Ukraine Crisis Appeal with the artists also donating 10% of their sale proceeds.

Dan Wolody, President of the Ukrainian Council of NSW, said: “The decision of Sculpture by the Sea to support the Ukraine Crisis Appeal this year is not only a great financial and morale boost for the people of Ukraine, it also sends a strong message of solidarity between Australian and Ukrainian communities. Events like this bring the war to ‘front of mind’, which is where we need to keep it if we are to win the war for Ukraine’s freedom. We’re hoping to raise $100,000 to the Ukraine Crisis Appeal if all of the Ukrainian artworks are sold, which will provide much-needed support to all the refugees returning to their bombed-out homes.”

David Handley, Founding Director of Sculpture by the Sea, said “It was wonderful to see a large number of Australians of Ukrainian heritage and recently arrived refugees from Ukraine unfurling and holding up the large Ukrainian flag today while singing their national anthem. Because of our friendships with Ukrainian artists, it was important to stage the showcase and unfurl the Ukrainian flag among the sculptures. Everyone who saw the flag and heard the singing was moved by the experience.”

What does the red and Black Ukraine flag mean?

The flag consists of two colors: red and black. The black color symbolizes the black soil of the Ukrainian land, and the red color symbolizes the blood of Ukrainians shed for it.

Why did Ukraine change their flag?

Ukraine has had to change its flag multiple times due to changes in political rule. While Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union, the Ukrainian flag was banned and a Soviet flag was required. Ukraine then reclaimed its national flag after it gained independence following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.

Can you hang Ukrainian flag vertically?

In addition to the normal horizontal format, many public buildings, such as the Verkhovna Rada, use vertical flags. Most town halls fly their town flag together with the national flag in this way; some town flags in Ukraine exist only in vertical form. The proportions of these vertical flags are not specified.

What does the blue and yellow Ukrainian flag mean?

The colours symbolize blue sky above the yellow field of wheat representing Ukraine and the Ukrainians as they are – freedom-loving, independent, brave, and vibrant. Ukrainian flag with its ancient history holds a significant place in the heart of the Ukrainian people and is a nation's talisman through all times.
