Description
Metal pin badge of a rainbow Pride flag. Rainbow colours and flags have been associated with the LGBTQIA community since 1978 when gay artist Gilbert Baker designed the rainbow flag as a symbol of pride. The original design had eight colours with their own meanings, but the simplified six-colour rainbow is more commonly used today (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet.)
