I've been largely dissatisfied in my search for images of Western, pre-Nazi swastikas. Please post any interesting examples you may have, especially particularly ancient or unusual designs.

Thank you.

Not exactly pre-Nazi but here is a swastika pattern that people won't notice. I even considered getting it as a tattoo. I own this T-shirt. It is my favourite.

The symbol of the Finnish air force (no longer used on actual planes, only in flags etc.):

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f9/Finland_Air_force.svg/200px-Finland_Air_force.svg.png

The Swedish count Erik von Rosen, who donated the first airplane to Finland in 1918, considered the Swastika as his lucky symbol/charm.

The Swastika is also the symbol of the Finnish Order of The Cross of Liberty:

This is what the president wears during the independence day ball on Dec. 6.

Swastika is very common as a detail of traditional embroidery in Russia and, as far as I know, in Baltia.

Well, with elderly Poles and Norwegians that's quite understandable. But I meant that for many youngters Nazi Germany is the only connotation a Swastika has.

Title 'The swastika : the earliest known symbol, and its migrations'

It was a very common logo among Polish scout organisations. I guess that's the reason, why it appars on this Swastika emblem. :) Unfortunately, I don't know anything more about why actually it was popular among Polish scouts.

Such a shame a meaningful and ancient pan-European symbol had to have its use trashed my the Nazis. I think we need to try and get it back into rightful use, not the Nazi version but all the other versions shown on here.
Muslims use a star in their symbol and yet we still use stars on many of our flags, I don't see why we can't reclaim the Swastika as a meaningful symbol, without all of the Nazi associated garbage attached to it.

And on the subject there's a fine example in England, the Ikley moor swastika

True. But I think a more sensible option would be to not make such a big fuss about swastikas, period. Nobody says anything when people go around with Communist T-Shirts. Too bad the swastika can't really be used for tattoos and clothing. It doesn't have to do with the Nazis so much as people being ignorant of history and ancient cultures. How many people nowadays know the swastika is a Hindu symbol and was also used by diverse peoples like the ancient Greeks etc. ?

swastika n. Sanskrit. "Good fortune."

Swastika or the colloquial Hindi swastik remains a common Hindu name.

What's more, the Swastika was used by virtually every ethno-cultural entity in some form or another. I like to say that the Swastika is a cosmic symbol, something that seems to grab people and tap into their collective unconscious. I believe this is among the reasons it was chosen by the NSDAP in the first place.

This is not pre-WWII, so my apologies, but thought it not off-topic so much that I would deserve a paddling.

This is something I made. It's about 2.5'x2.5'. It hangs on my wall just above my desk/laptop and adjacent to a print of Schopenhauer. The same picture I use as an avatar.

Anyways, I saw the image I have as a thumbnail in a film about WWII called The Ogre. I remember very little of the film except that the floor inside Herman Goering's hunting lodge was covered in tiles with this pattern. I fell in love with the geometry immediately and felt it necessary to reproduce it, albeit much larger.

Ohhh nooo. It's pure marble imported from Cyprus! :lie:

I cut it with a box-knife. You just cut a line in it and then it breaks along that line when you bend it. Then I sanded the slightly rough edge. It's tough to get the pieces to fit tight though....and it is! A hair cannot fit inbetween any of the pieces (I'm proud).

In his book, Cosmos, Carl Sagan proposed that because the Swastika appeared in hundreds of cultures at about the same time (circa 5000 B.C.E. I think), that the symbol was a representation of a very real comet that appeared in the night skies at the time. Not hard to imagine- A rotating comet with three or four jets of gaseous matter would produce a Swastika-like apparition in the night sky.
