Fire and Rescue River Flame Patch — Order This Scroll Design
Design S1689A at a glance
A scroll-cut patch in maroon, navy, grey and orange with a grey border, built around a ring that holds a flame rising out of a winding river. Lettering carries the department name, a fire and rescue line repeated on the scroll, and a motto. Fire and water share the center, a fitting symbol for a department that answers both kinds of call.

About this fire and rescue river flame scroll design
Departments that run both fire suppression and water rescue rarely get a patch that shows both, and this one does it with a single image: a flame climbing out of a winding river. Setting it in a ring gives the emblem a seal-like weight, and the scroll outline adds a heritage feel. Maroon and navy carry the field, with orange reserved for the flame so it stays the focal point.
Order it with your department name and motto, reshape the river to follow your own waterway, or use the repeated fire and rescue line for a station or company number instead. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Fire and rescue river flame patch questions
Can the river match our local waterway?
Yes. Send a map or aerial image and we redraw the bends of the river to follow it, shown on your proof before production.
Why does the fire and rescue line appear twice?
The layout repeats it on both ends of the scroll. You can keep that symmetry or use one end for a station number, founding year or motto.
Can the flame color change?
Yes. Orange is shown, but red, gold or a two-tone flame all work; preview them in the markup tool.
Will the ring and river read at a small size?
From about 3.5 inches wide, yes. Smaller cap patches get a simplified river with fewer bends.
What does it cost to start?
Nothing up front. The mockup is free and arrives within 4 hours; pricing runs from $3.00 to $20.00 per patch depending on quantity.
