Since 1848 to 1880 the Royal standard was a white flag with a
blue border. At the centre it bore the State Arms flanked by four
tricolours.

Since 1848 to 1880 the Royal princeps had a swallow tail
version of it, but the arms had a princely crown, were of a
simple form and there was one tricolour and one Savoy flag.

It is almost identical to those shown in Flaggenbuch 1939,
except that here the shade of blue appears to be darker

After 1880 until 1946 the standards were defined as for Royal
Decree of 28 November 1880. The Royal Standard was square, blue,
with a crowned eagle amid, the shield of Savoy on his breast, all
encircled by the collar of SS. Annunziata. A royal crown in each
corner

Flaggenbuch shows a flag similar to Simon's image, with a few
differences probably not too significant, except the shade of
blue, which is much darker in Flaggenbuch (more or less similar
to the shade used for British flags) and the lack of fringe
around the flag. The same flag, but swallow-tailed, is shown in
Flaggenbuch as Prince's Standard.

Simon's image is incorrect. An imperial German 1892-1918 eagle
combined with a 'generic' style of royal crown and a collar which
does not show the 'FERT' acronym of the House of Savoy. The scan
of the Royal Standard is
more accurate.

Royal Standard of the Crownprince of Italy from circa 1905
onward.
Theo van der Zalm, 10 July 2000
It is almost identical to those shown in Flaggenbuch 1939,
except that here the shade of blue appears to be darker and the
swallowtail of the Prince's flag has a right angle cut-out.
