The meaning of the double-headed eagle

The Shqiponja – the double-headed eagle – is the centerpiece of the Albanian flag and one of the oldest symbols of Albanian identity. It looks in two directions: a symbol of vigilance, strength, and the ability to connect past and future.

The combination of the gold-colored eagle on a black background and the surrounding laurel wreath border gives this medallion a special elegance and timelessness. Black and gold – a combination that radiates class, character, and attitude.
