Torres Strait Islander Flag Lanyard

This Torres Strait Islander Flag Lanyard features the distinctive colours and symbols associated with the Torres Strait Islander flag, alongside artwork celebrating the culture and heritage of the Torres Strait Islands. The flag was designed by Bernard Namok in 1992 and was officially recognised as an official Flag of Australia in 1995. It represents the Torres Strait Islander people, whose homeland lies between the northern tip of Queensland and Papua New Guinea, and serves as an important symbol of identity, community, and cultural pride.

The green sections of the flag symbolise the land, while the blue represents the sea that connects the islands and their communities. The black element represents the Torres Strait Islander people, while the traditional Dhari headdress and central white star are among the flag’s most recognisable features. The five-pointed star represents the major island groups and also symbolises navigation, reflecting the deep maritime traditions of Torres Strait Islander culture.

It includes a detachable quick-release buckle and sturdy metal lobster clasp for securely carrying keys, ID cards, access passes, and badges.
