32×32 Inch Cotton Sewn with Gold Fringe & Sleeve
Army of Northern Virginia Cavalry Flag – Square Civil War Replica
This 32×32 inch square Confederate battle flag replicates the style used by cavalry and artillery units under General Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia. The smaller size and square shape were designed for high mobility and visibility — ideal for mounted units and fast-moving commands.
This iconic design was adopted following the First Battle of Manassas (Bull Run) to eliminate confusion between Union and Confederate flags on the battlefield. Featuring a gold fringe border and integrated pole sleeve, this reproduction is made for formal indoor or ceremonial display.

The confusion between early Union and Confederate flags at the First Battle of Bull Run prompted the need for a distinctive battle flag, resulting in this iconic cross-on-red field.
