Presentation of Renouveau Français

Renouveau Français (RF) is a French ultranationalist organization, founded in 2005. The RF claims to be "French nationalist and counter-revolutionary", and of "Roman Catholic inspiration". The RF is mostly known through its street stickers calling for the "return of the nationalists", "the nationalist fight", "the reconquest of the country" and "France to the French".

Former flag of Renouveau Français

Flag of Renouveau Français, three versions - Images by Tomislav Todorović, 1 May 2016

The former flag of Renouveau Français was blue with the white emblem of the movement in the middle, either rectangular (photo), square (photo, or forked and used vertically, like a procession banner.

The emblem of RF is a stylized fleur-de-lis, "the best symbol of the French tradition and the emblem of the nation since the earliest ages". Its stylized version, easy to draw, represents the counter-revolutionary nationalism. Its harmonious proportions are based on the Golden Number. The members of the RF are awarded a golden badge representing the symbol, while everybody can purchase a white version of the badge.
The RF also uses a sword and a "Celtic cross" as its emblems, but seemingly not on flags.

RF also uses a flag derived from the French tricolor by adding a black fleur-de-lis to the center of white field (photo, 24 May 2008; photo, former blog of the movement). The fleur-de-lis has a shape similar to the one generally used (and already prevailing at that time), but more "angled" - the shape corners are not rounded. The flag seems to have fallen out of use since that time.

Yvelines

The Yvelines section of RF has adopted a flag and presented it in March 2013 (photo, photo, photo). The flag is white, like the flag of the Kingdom of France used during the Ancient Regime and the Restauration, and charged with the emblem of the movement in blue, placed somewhat off-center, closer to the top; the colors are reversed from those of the main RF flag, but such use is widely spread for the movement's advertising material. There are also the Sacred-Heart-of-Jesus in top left corner and the coat of arms of Yvelines in the bottom left corner. The bends in the coat of arms look darker than the field; it is difficult to tell whether that was intended, since the default representation of heraldic tincture argent, if no metallic paint is used, is white color, and the field itself also looks grayish due to the photographing conditions. The last two photos of the flag also show the same uncertain shade of the bends in the coat of arms and the last one reveals that the presented design is indeed made for the sinister hoist, as suggested by the first and second photos, which also reveal the sleeve and its stitches along the right-hand edge of the flag.
