House flag, Lambert Brothers Ltd
The house flag of Lambert Brothers Ltd, London. A white rectangular flag with a red triangle in the centre. The flag is made of a wool and synthetic fibre bunting. It has a cotton hoist and is machine sewn. A rope and toggle is attached.
Lambert Brothers Ltd have been in business since 1841. They moved into ship owning in 1878 with the purchase of a wooden schooner. Shortly after they began acquiring small steamers to ship coal to London. In 1896 four collier fleets were amalgamated under Cory's flag, including Lamberts. By 1900, Lambert Brothers had extended its activities to deep sea tramping and purchased the Commercial Steamship Co. Ltd in 1905.
