The president's colour represents a blue square cloth bearing the golden trident in the center – the Sign of Prince Volodymyr the Great's State, edged with gold vegetative ornament.[2] Two-sided silken cloth was embroidered with the use of computer technologies. One side of the president's colour bears more than a million stitches of pure gold and yellow gold threads. The embroidered trident has volume due to a special lining. The flags of the British monarch and the US and French presidents are also made with the use of the same technology.[3]
