Medieval Painted Flags – A Study: This is an excellent and scholarly article on the medieval painted flag written in 2007. The author includes a complete bibliography. The article gives an overview of the painted flag in relation to other types of decoration used for medieval flags, who commissioned them, from whom they were commissioned and what part the flags played in medieval life. Sources are listed for information from which conclusions are drawn. There is also a discussion of period painting technique used on flags with quotes from extant writers. Finally, the author outlines her own reconstruction of a painted flag utilizing as many historically authentic methods as possible with as much modern convenience as can be managed. Her methods are illustrated with excellent step-by-step photographs as she works to produce a silk painted flag. She describes how the medieval painter would accomplish a process and then outlines her own process and explains her reasoning when she makes choices of media or method. The article is actually included on the Aston Hall website. Aston Hall is a household located in the eastern shire of Darach in the Kingdom of Caid and is known for its collection of beautiful silk flags. [520 hits | Report this link as dead]

Gifts from Atlantis: Gifts From Atlantis started as a very small hobby business specializing in chainmaille that we made by hand. We had bracelets, necklaces, key fobs, and other small items we would sell at medieval-type events. Soon we discovered that we needed to start carrying other items. We believed whatever we were going to sell had to be a quality item at a fair price. Since then our business has been growing every year, and we have our customers to thank for that. We now find ourselves traveling far and wide a couple times a year to various gift/trade shows looking for the next new item to share with everyone. We currently travel throughout the states of Washington, Oregon and Idaho. Some of the events we do are 300 - 500 miles apart from weekend to weekend. [419 hits | Report this link as dead]
