First National Confederate Flags

The Confederate States of America's first national flag, the "Stars & Bars," flew from 1861 to 1863. Each of the eight stars represented a Confederate state as of March 1861, when the flag was adopted. Its design closely resembled the Union's "Stars and Stripes," making it hard to distinguish between the two in battle, particularly during the First Battle of Bull Run. This led to incidents of "friendly fire" and the capture of several prisoners of war.

Flag-Works provides quality made Confederate flags that are made of 100% Nylon.  First National Flags, also known as the Stars and Bars Flag was similar to the Stars and Stripes.  Seven Stars representing the number of Confederate states laid in a blue canton in the upper left corner with three broad red and white bars running horizontally.  Confusion between the two flags led to a change to the Confederate flag.   Add these beautiful historical reproductions of the Confederate Flags to your collection or give as a gift.  Most flags are 100% nylon (unless otherwise noted) and are finished with a white canvas heading and brass grommets.  Order your First National flag today.
