Presumably the right half of a status disc showing both Obwalden and Nidwalden. Nidwalden had used the double key as a pattern for its war flag since the early 15th century. The red and white pattern that used to represent Unterwalden as a whole was now used by Obwalden. Location: Sułkowski Castle in Bielsko-Biała, Poland (source). –
Banner of Nidwalden (ca. 1601), gift from Landammann (governor) Johannes Waser to the state of Nidwalden, silk damask, key made with gold and silver brocade, Zwickelbild with Jesus on the cross with John and Mary. Location: town hall, Stans (source)]

Flaggen, Knatterfahnen and Livery Colours



[Knatterfahnen]
    [Knatterfahnen] images by Pascal Gross

Flaggen are vertically hoisted from a crossbar in the manner of gonfanon, in ratio of about 2:9, with a swallowtail that indents about 2 units. The chief, or hoist (square part) usually incorporates the design from the coat of arms – not from the flag. The fly part is always divided lengthwise, usually in a bicolour, triband or tricolour pattern (except Schwyz which is monocolour, and Glarus which has four stripes of unequal width). The colours chosen for the fly end are usually the main colours of the coat of arms, but the choice is not always straight forward.

Knatterfahnen are similar to Flaggen, but hoisted from the long side and have no swallow tail. They normally show the national, cantonal or communal flag in their chiefs.
