Queen's Personal Barbadian Flag
- Queen's Personal Barbadian Flag
The Queen's Personal Barbadian Flag, sometimes known as the Royal Standard of Barbados, is the personal flag of Queen Elizabeth II in her role as Queen of Barbados. The flag was approved for use in the 1970s and is only used by the Queen when she is in Barbados, or attending an event abroad in her role as head of state of Barbados. The Queen's representative, the Governor-General of Barbados has their own flag.
The Queen's flag consists of the Royal Arms of Barbados in banner form: A bearded fig tree (with the leaves coloured blue) in the centre and a Pride of Barbados flower in each of the top corners on a yellow field. A blue disc of the letter "E" crowned surrounded by a garland of gold roses defaces the flag. The disc is taken from the Queen's Personal Flag.
