Description: 3x5 Foot Flag of Cornwall Saint Piran's Flag (Cornish: Baner Peran) is the flag of Cornwall. The earliest known description of the flag as the Standard of Cornwall was written in 1838. It is used by Cornish people as a symbol of identity. It is a white cross on a black background. The flag is attributed to Saint Piran, a 6th-century Cornish abbot. Saint Piran is supposed to have adopted these two colors from seeing the molten tin spilling out of the black ore in his fire. This occurred during his supposed discovery of tin in Cornwall, thus becoming the patron saint of tin miners. The earliest use of the white cross and black background design with relation to the Saint is the 15th century coat of arms of the Saint-Peran family. At the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant in June 2012, the flag was among those flown on the Royal Barge, Gloriana.
