A Tribute Worthy of a Hero
In every branch of the United States Armed Forces, the values of courage, dedication, and sacrifice define what it means to serve. When a loved one has worn the uniform of this great nation, their service deserves to be remembered with honor and grace.
The Presidential Pedestal Flag and Medal Display Case is designed to do exactly that — to preserve the American flag and the medals that tell the story of a lifetime of service. More than a simple display, it is a centerpiece of remembrance, a symbol of patriotism, and a work of fine craftsmanship that stands as proudly as the hero it honors.
The Significance of the Presidential Pedestal Design
The design of the Presidential Pedestal Flag Case evokes respect, dignity, and national pride. The raised pedestal base provides an elevated platform that signifies honor and distinction — a fitting foundation for the American flag that once flew proudly or was draped over a hero’s casket.
Unlike traditional triangular flag cases, the Presidential Pedestal model features an integrated base compartment beneath the flag display. This base is specifically crafted to hold medals, ribbons, insignias, and certificates, allowing families to tell the full story of a veteran’s journey in one elegant frame. It’s both a memorial and a masterpiece — a perfect blend of symbolic design and functional preservation.
Elegant Craftsmanship and Superior Quality
Every Presidential Pedestal Flag and Medal Display Case is expertly handcrafted from the finest solid wood, often available in rich cherry, classic walnut, or deep mahogany finishes. These woods are chosen not only for their strength and durability but also for their timeless beauty.
The front panel features clear glass or crystal acrylic, ensuring that the folded flag and medals are visible in all their glory while being protected from dust, moisture, and fading. Precision joinery, hand-polished finishes, and a soft felt-lined interior make each case a reflection of pride and respect.
The pedestal base itself often includes a hinged or sliding glass cover, making it easy to arrange medals or mementos inside. When illuminated under soft lighting, the medals shimmer — creating a powerful, emotional display that speaks of honor and remembrance.
A Meaningful Way to Tell Their Story
Every service member has a story — one of duty, courage, and sacrifice. The Presidential Pedestal Display allows families to preserve and present that story in the most dignified way possible.
In the upper triangular section rests the 5’ x 9.5’ burial flag, carefully folded with only the blue field and white stars visible. Below it, the pedestal base provides a spacious, elegant area to display medals of valor, unit insignias, service ribbons, badges, or even a photo of the honored veteran.
Together, these elements form a complete visual narrative — a life lived in service to the nation, immortalized in wood, glass, and cloth. Whether displayed in a living room, hallway, or memorial space, this case becomes a daily reminder of courage and devotion.
Customization and Personal Touches
The Presidential Pedestal Flag Case can often be personalized to reflect the unique legacy of the individual it commemorates.
- Engraved nameplates can include the veteran’s name, rank, branch of service, and years of duty.
- Military emblems such as those of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, or Coast Guard can be added for authenticity.
- Some designs feature a certificate holder or a spot for a photograph, creating a comprehensive tribute display.
Personalization transforms this elegant case into something even more meaningful — a one-of-a-kind heirloom that can be passed down from generation to generation.
Placement and Display Ideas
The Presidential Pedestal Flag and Medal Display Case is designed to make an impression wherever it stands.
Its commanding presence makes it ideal for:
- Living rooms and family memorial areas – as a proud centerpiece of remembrance.

When paired with soft lighting or placed against a dark backdrop, the flag’s stars shine vividly — a reminder that the spirit of service never fades.
Caring for Your Presidential Display Case
To maintain its pristine condition and protect the flag and medals within, follow these simple care tips:
