Calhoun Sheriff Embroidered Patch with Eagle Crossed Flags Mississippi State Outline and 1852 Founding Year

Description

This Calhoun County Sheriff embroidered patch was designed for the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Department in Mississippi, featuring a gold spread-wing eagle above crossed American and Mississippi state flags — framing a detailed Mississippi state outline with a green star and the county’s 1852 founding year — on a rich forest green twill base with tan interior field.

Shape & Base: Wide shield shape with a notched upper center indentation and rounded point at the bottom. The interior field is rendered in tan or khaki thread fill — creating a warm two-tone composition where the tan field serves as the background for the central design elements, all framed by a forest green outer border band and a dark green merrowed border edge. The green-and-tan palette gives this patch a distinctive outdoor or military character uncommon in standard sheriff patch design.

Top Section: A curved tan banner with green border spans the upper field with “SHERIFF’S DEPT.” embroidered in bold green block lettering centered within it — the department designation rendered against the tan banner with strong contrast and even character spacing across the full upper width.

Center: A richly detailed multi-element composition fills the center field against the tan interior. A gold bald eagle with spread wings is positioned at the upper center — wings extended outward and upward with detailed gold feathering rendered through directional satin-stitch, white head and tail detail, and alert forward-facing expression. Two crossed flags extend diagonally outward from beneath the eagle’s body — the American flag on the left in full red, white, and blue with white stars on blue canton and red and white stripes accurately rendered, and the Mississippi state flag on the right depicting the former state flag design with the Confederate battle flag emblem in the upper left canton against a field of red, white, and blue horizontal bars — both flags rendered in full color with good flag accuracy. At the center between the crossed flags, a tan Mississippi state outline silhouette is rendered in tan and brown thread with accurate boundary and coastline detail. Within the state outline, a single green five-point star marks a location within the state — possibly indicating Calhoun County’s geographic position. The founding year “1852” is embroidered in dark green block lettering centered within the state outline, referencing Calhoun County’s establishment date.

Bottom Section: A curved gold banner with green border spans the lower field beneath the state outline, with “MISS.” embroidered in bold green block lettering centered within it — providing the state abbreviation identification as a clean lower anchor element. “CALHOUN” is embroidered vertically in bold green lettering along the left side of the shield and “COUNTY” vertically along the right side — both oriented to read upward from bottom to top, flanking the central composition and completing the full county identification across the patch face.

Embroidery Quality: The forest green border with tan interior field, gold eagle, full-color crossed flags, and state outline creates a rich, multi-layered composition with strong regional identity. The gold eagle achieves good wing feather detail through directional satin-stitch. The crossed flag pair renders accurate American and Mississippi flag designs with clean color separation at medium scale. The Mississippi state outline is accurately shaped with clean boundary definition. The green star and 1852 founding year are legible within the state silhouette. The vertical side lettering for “CALHOUN” and “COUNTY” adds a distinctive typographic character to the overall shield composition. The dark green merrowed border provides a cohesive, durable finish suited for active sheriff department uniform wear.
