For sale here only is the vexillum cloth flag. It is only shown with it's other parts to give you an idea of what it could look like if completed. The other parts you see can also be purchased separately.Roman Empire legionary auxiliary flag embroidered vexillum standard eagle SPQR army legion with over 100,000 gold tread stitches. It is centered on two layers of red wool with gold fringe at the bottom and with the top sewn to allow for a support rod. The price as is is 5. These vexillums do vary in size some from time to time as every single one of them is hand done one at a time. A good measurement base however is that they are 20 inches wide and twenty five inches high. This does not include the gold fringe hanging off the bottom making it longer if added into the measurement. If you intend to add a legions name or number, it is suggested to leave this areas blank. For an extra fee, I can add your legion name and number on top or bottom of the flag. Also for an extra fee, I can complete the entire vexillum standard with hard wood pole, spike, Roman spaer top, side terminals and two decorated streamers attched to the flag support pole. If you are interested in any of this customized work.
Are you interested at all in having me make the complete standard for you? You can control the price by determining how much or how little you want to put into as I have several options for each accessory. First of all is the pole. I have one higher grade and thicker hard wood pole that is stained a nice brown, which is also then sealed in and another cheaper version of an unstained but thinner hardwood pole. I can add an authentic style Roman spear blade made of iron. I can also add an iron Roman style butt spike. To mount either one f these takes grinding down both ends of the pole to both make a perfect fit to affix these with nails or screws. On top of the standard is mounted a wooden 'T' cross bar on which the vexillum hangs from with two gold terminals on either end of the rod. Two red ribbon streamers hang on each side of the flag with gold heart design terminals on the bottom which was a common Roman design. These ribbons can be plain or decorated with metal studs and in cloth or leather or a combination of both. These vexillum flags are approximately 20 inches 'wide' by 20 inches 'high', not including the gold fringe. Roman coins, grave stele and monuments also show various other items that can be attached such as phalera silver disk, imago's or the image of the emperor disk, wreaths, the manus or hand at top and even a Roman eagle on top to name just a few. All of the items listed above can be priced before you commit to them. Basically, you can own a Volkswagen or a Mercedes Benz.
