House flag of Schellen Shipping

The house flag of Schellen Shipping, as shown on the company website, is white with a green star bearing a white disk charged with a black S.
The flag is similar to the house flag of Stoom-Maatsch. "Tromp" (J.F. & F. Schellen), shown on Lloyd's 1911, where the star is green instead of black.
