Symbolism of the Rhode Island State Flag

The official Rhode Island banner consists of 13 gold stars encircling a gold anchor below which the word hope is written on a blue ribbon. The various elements on the white background of this emblem have several symbolic values.

The anchor and the ribbon with the word Hope were already used on the flags and military flags of the state of Rhode Island during the Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1783 ; But their association with the state goes back much further, to the Great Seal of the state as early as 1640. These elements were probably adopted as symbols of the state because of the bible verse 'hope we have as an anchor in the soul' but also as a tribute to the fact that Rhode Island is a coastal state!

The thirteen stars represent the thirteen colonies and symbolize the fact that Rhode Island was one of the founding states. These founding states are also represented by the horizontal stripes on the US flag.  The Rhode Island emblems are sometimes represented with a gold fringe.
