Or, on a chevron, between three crosses flory Gules, three crescents Argent.

Escudo de oro, un cabrio de gules, cargado de tres crecientes de plata, acompañado de tres cruces flordelisadas de gules.

Design rationale

The arms of «de la Rica» lineage from the Principality of Asturias, Spain, is: «Quarterly: 1 and 4 Or, a cross flory Gules; 2 and 3 Azure, a crescent Argent». Then we made a new design, not quarterly, based on these two figures: the cross flory Gules and the crescent Argent, along with Or for the field and Gules for the chevron, not using Azure to reduce the number of colors. This new blazon for Nick Rica is: «Or, on a chevron between three crosses flory Gules three crescents Argent».

The following figure shows the creation process starting from the coat of arms of the «de la Rica» lineage, in the dexter chief, with the final result in the fess point, and the intermediate variations in orle.
