Or, a holm oak eradicated Vert, fructed Or, in front of its trunk two boars passant, in pale Sable.

Escudo de oro, una encina arrancada de sinople, frutada de oro, atravesados a su tronco dos jabalíes pasantes, en palo de sable.

Coat of arms painted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular external shape and with a metal beaten finishing.

Ancient arms of the lineage Peraza of Cantabria emblazoned by me. I have painted the acorns in Or metal on the Vert leaves so that they stand out, as they would not on the Or metal field. I often write expressions such as metal Or and color Vert, specifying which are metals and which are colors, to take into account the rule of tinctures.
