The three diamonds on the flag of St. Vincent & The Grenadines are placed in a “v” shape for St. Vincent and resemble the fact that St. Vincent & The Grenadines group of islands are the gems of Antilles. Blue represents the sky, golden is for the warmth and bright spirit of the inhabitants and the sands of the area.
