Product Description
The Liberty Stand in chrome is the chrome flag stand for indoor and parade poles from 1 IN to 1 1/4 IN, the same Liberty pattern as our gold stand in a bright chrome finish for offices with silver hardware. Order it unweighted for a parade set you carry, empty to fill with sand on site, or pre-weighted at 8 lb., 15 lb., or 20 lb. for a lobby or a stage.
Chrome matches our chrome Army spear, chrome guidon stand, and the steel furniture of a modern office. Weight is what keeps a pole steady: at least 8 lb. for an 8 FT pole and 15 lb. for a 9 FT pole. The same stand is available in gold, and poles, finials, and cord and tassel are in our hardware and accessories.

Historical Background
The Liberty stand pattern, a round weighted base with a center socket, has been the standard indoor flag base in American institutions for decades. Gold was the traditional finish to match brass and gilt hardware. Chrome came in as offices and public buildings modernized and wanted a chrome flag stand to match steel furniture, chrome finials, and silver fittings. The pattern is the same; only the finish changed.
