1) 2) Imperial Japanese Naval Ensign. Rising Sun Flag (Kyokujitsu-ki) design adopted as the naval ensign of the Imperial Japanese Navy (Naval flags have the sun off center to the left). IAJ had the sun in the center. Very nice one piece rising sun flag that measures approximately 29" x 36 1/2”, and is made of very fine silk. It is in very good condition, with a dyed red "Sun" in the middle, with rays going out to the edge of the flag. It features gold toned leather reinforcements and ties on the staff side and nicely stitched borders. Shrink wrapped with cardboard backing, 30" x 40". 2) Rising Sun style flag, has a off center white circle instead of red depicting a cherry blossom, crossed rising sun and national flags with kanji symbols underneath. Unknown meaning as we could not find any reference to it. Measures 22" x 14", white silk, printed. Flag has a little water damage.
