Our Sons of Liberty insignia desk mat tells a tale that goes back in time, with a vintage graphic featuring the iconic Tree of Liberty. Wrapped around it is none other than the American Rattlesnake, ready to defend its ground. To keep things as authentic as possible, we used fell types to craft the text "Watering the tree of liberty." It's a nod to Thomas Jefferson's unforgettable words, "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

Diving deeper into the roots of the Liberty Tree, we've got the Liberty Bell hanging there, with 1765 boldly marked above. That's the year it all kicked off, the American Revolution, when the infamous Stamp Act fueled the colonies' fire, breaking years of relative neglect from the British Crown. Below this, a banner proudly stretches, bearing the motto "Resistance to Tyranny is Obedience to God." 

"Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God" was a powerful motto, once considered for the Great Seal of the United States, although it never made the final cut. Jefferson later made it his own and showcased it at Monticello. As for its origin, that's still a bit of a riddle, but it's widely believed to be one of the clever quips from the mind of none other than Benjamin Franklin.

The whole shebang is flanked by some mighty wings, symbolizing the boundless flight of freedom. It's a design that's as rich in history as it is in meaning.
