About this scalloped hydrant cross design
Scalloped edges have a vintage, almost hand-made charm, and on a fire patch they suggest a department with history. This round sets a maltese cross with a helmet, axes and hydrants inside that scalloped border, using tan alongside the red, gold and navy for a softer, heritage palette. The hydrants underline that this is a station built around the engine company's work.
Customize it for your station: change the station number, swap the hydrants for a ladder or nozzle, or recolor the tan to your department's accent. 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.
