Designed and carried out expressly by the Brotherhood with the aim of spreading and enlarging more if any, the witnessing of the faith and devotion that the children and neighbors feel towards their Excellency Patron Saint George.
For the fabric that was manufactured expressly, the yarn was purchased from the local company R. Belda Llorens, S. A., from the Mataix Sempere brothers who charged him at the price of the material without counting the spinning work; Making the fabric the Vicedo Sanjuán sisters for free; And the printing was done by the Ontinyent Colortex company, S. A., that through the mediation of our countryman Ceferino Micó, he collected the minimum.
The balco wheel with a measure of 100 x 140 cms., it was made with ivory plain fabric, with a print of the Image of Sant Jordi in full color that presides over the Altar of the Saint.
It was so successful that, subsequently and already being President Germán Ribera Domenéch, the draw was repeated, without modifying any of its details.
In the year 2002, facing the need to roll balconies, due to being out of stock, Brotherhood of St. George, Saint President Jorge Juan French Albero, design and make a new one. This time jacquard fabric; Combining two colors (groc i garnet) to give greater emphasis to the iconography represented, which, just like in the previous hanging, represents our Image of Saint George that presides over the Altar of the Parish Church, but with a set of borders around it that gives it a greater emphasis and a better finish, and in addition he wore a fringe of the same colors all around him; The final measures once finished, including the fringe are XXX x XXX cms.
Because the Confraternity of Sant Jordi, would not have to make any kind of disbursement in advance before the sale of the balcony wheels, a Banyeres company offered to finance the yarn purchase operation, of weaving and clothing; the Confraternity agrees to return the money in accordance with the commitment previously established.
Seven years later, in the year 2010, being President Jorge Enrique Esteban Romero, to the demand made by the neighbors and brothers that a new balco wheel be made, that it had a new and colorful image, or in his case to renew the existing one, the Brotherhood decides to make a new balco wheel.
After months of study, analysis of what Sant Jordi's roda balco meant for the residents of our town, designs and alternatives, it was chosen to carry out a completely different hanging to the previous ones, by its design, shape, colorful and finished. Opting to reproduce in real size the banner most loved by all the people of Bath the "Guió de Sant Jordi". A faithful reproduction, to which only the tips of the lower part have been simplified due to their small size which made it difficult to make; You a measure of 90 x 135 cms.
The balco wheel is made with plain fabric, with a four-color digital print, its durability being guaranteed by the manufacturer, being fully made up and finished, finished all around the edge with a gold flush rivet, porta 3 ribbons in the upper part to tie it to the balcony and two more ribbons, one on each side, along the same, to avoid that in the case of wind the balco wheel will fly away.
