They were probably adopted from the shield of the Province of Limbourg, the only difference was the background which was changed into silver with blue stripes. The three-coloured horizontal design was fixed on June 12, 1845. 1830 was a common year starting on Friday (see link for calendar). ...

Ensign The red lion is the official ensign for ships registered in Luxembourg. It is used for river and sea shipping, as for aviation. This flag is based on the luxeburgish coat of arms and is used as the ensign to avoid the possibility of Luxembourg's ensign being confused for that of the Netherlands. Ten white and blue stripes serve as the field for a red lion with a yellow tongue and crown. The proper ratio for this ensign is 5:7.
