Hi M.E.E.,
I state that I am not an expert on flags, however over time I have had the opportunity to observe numerous examples, and waiting for some more authoritative opinion than mine to arrive, I'll tell you what I think.
It is a nice example and well made, far too much to be an operational flag, I believe it is actually an example intended to be used for parades, or even more likely inside military halls or offices.
Regards
Roberto

I am thinking State not Regia Marina, would you think so also? or is there really no way to know?
Thanks for the info.

For what I know, the crowned shield flags should be of military use, while the shielded only flags were used by civilian authorities. Hard if not impossible to state if Navy or other branches.

Beautiful! Savoia shield with crown is sure military use. What are the measures in centimeters?

I confirm what the other comments have already said: the presence of the crown is for military use.

It is a little hard to get exact measurements due to the fringe being in the way but it is roughly 150X90.
