The item is a Russian Imperial Flag (1914 Pattern) accessory, designed for customizing brick-built scenes.
Russian Imperial Flag Printed Tile (2×4) This is a custom printed rectangular tile (standard 2×4 stud size). It features the horizontal tricolor of White, Blue, and Red (the national colors of Russia). The distinguishing feature is the yellow square canton in the top-left corner, which contains the Black Imperial Double-Headed Eagle. This specific design represents the “Flag for Private Use” authorized by the Tsar during World War I.
Background: This flag variant was introduced by Tsar Nicholas II in 1914, shortly after the outbreak of World War I. It combined the national civil flag with the Imperial Standard (the black eagle on a yellow field) to symbolize the unity between the Tsar and the Russian people during the war. It is historically significant as one of the final symbols of the Romanov dynasty before the 1917 Revolution. In a LEGO diorama, this flag is perfect for a WWI Russian headquarters, a patriotic parade scene, or as an ensign on a vehicle.
