Zavala Flag – Lorenzo De Zavala Flag – Texas Republic Flag Concept (1836) | Sewn Heavy Duty Double Nylon Embroidered Flags
This flag design represents the proposed national flag of the Republic of Texas, attributed to Lorenzo de Zavala, a key figure in the 1836 Texas independence movement and the Republic’s first Vice President. Though there is no confirmed record of an official version, historical notes indicate De Zavala proposed a blue field with a lone star surrounded by the word “TEXAS.”
The version known today was popularized later in the 20th century — likely created by Mrs. Adele Briscoe Cox, who cataloged early Texas flags in a commemorative booklet. Despite no documented use in battle or adoption by the Texas Congress, it remains a symbolic emblem of early Texian identity and revolutionary ambition.
