By sewing a number of these pelts together, with white and blue-grey alternating,... one which easily translated into the stylized armorial form of Vair and its variants».

Coat of arms of Albrecht Dürer, 1471-1528, emblazoned by me based on the woodcut titled «Coat of Arms of Albrecht Dürer» made by Albrecht Dürer himself in 1523 on a sheet measuring 35.1 × 26.1 cm belonging to The Elisha Whittelsey Collection, The Elisha Whittelsey Fund, 1952, held at the Metropolitan Museum of New York, and on the work titled «Marriage Coat of Arms of the Families Duerer and Holper. Verso of the Albrecht Dürer the Elder portrait», dated 1490; Albrecht Dürer the Elder, 1427–1502, was his father.

Design rationale

The Dürer family coat of arms is an example of canting arms. Their family origin traces back to Ajtós, Hungary, a name which means «door» or «doorman» in Hungarian. Upon settling in Nuremberg, the family Germanized their surname to «Türer», derived from «Tür», meaning «door», and later to Dürer. This is the reason of the main charge of these arms.

Coat of arms of the city of Almeria, Andalusia, emblazoned by me. In 1147, during the Reconquista, the city of Almería was captured by the forces of King Alfonso VII of León, known as «the Emperor», as part of a broader crusading effort declared by Pope Eugene III. The conquest came in response to the Almohad invasion of 1146, which had begun with a landing in Algeciras and quickly seized key territories in the south of the Iberian Peninsula. In reaction, Alfonso VII negotiated an alliance with the Almoravid leader Ibn Ganiya to organize a resistance. He met with Ramon Berenguer IV, Count of Barcelona, and García Ramírez of Navarre, and together they planned the assault on Almería, which at the time was under Almoravid control. Crucial to the success of the operation was the support of the powerful Genoese navy, as well as French crusaders who had responded to the papal call. Subsequently, in recognition of Genoa’s decisive role in the campaign, Almería adopted as the central element of its coat of arms the Genoese emblem: «Argent, a cross Gules».

A summary of the Blog Idtg de Kimon Andreou can be consulted within my section of recommended links. That summary is accompanied by another interpretation of Kimon's coat of arms, with the following differentiating characteristics:

• Interpretation outlined in Sable.
• It includes his motto «Ischys Dia Tis Gnoseos», written in Greek, which could be translated as «el poder del conocimiento».
• With his saltire reduced to 2/3 of its traditional width, which is 1/3 of the width of the shield. In this way, the saltire is 2/9 of the width of the shield. The objective of the reduction is to give more space to both his owl and his oak. This reduction does not convert it into the diminished piece called flanque, which has a 1/3 reduction over 1/3 of the shield's width, therefore, 1/9 of the shield's width.

Escudo de gules, una Justicia de plata, vestida de oro, en su diestra una espada de plata, alzada, guarnecida de oro y en su siniestra una balanza de oro. Timbrado de una corona real abierta. Divisa: «ANPC».

Coat of arms that I have organized based on a previous idea from the ANPC, in the following way: the mouth of the shield is rounded and is outlined at double my usual thickness; the whole is enamelled in gules, argent and or, illuminated, outlined in sable and with a watercolor finish; and to separate the letters of the motto a dot «·» is used at mid-height.

[Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 119 and following] dedicates its chapter 7 to «representative heraldry» and, within it, its first section to «professional heraldry», to which this coat of arms belongs according to his classification, and defines it as that which «corresponds to and reflects... all the emblems of the different professions, professional associations, societies where people with the same hobbies or pastimes are grouped». The other 3 categories that, together with «professional heraldry», make up «representative heraldry» are «industrial», «sport» and «tourism».

Personally, I follow my own heraldic classification, which follows to some extent [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975], in which the coats of arms of associations like the ANPC are classified within what I call socioeconomic heraldry.

Coat of arms of the Arrano Beltza, the black eagle, emblazoned by me in 6 steps: 1) Given a rectangle of any proportion, draw its vertical and horizontal axes of symmetry in Azure. Draw a line parallel to the horizontal axis at any distance; in the figure, it is drawn above the axis and in Vert. To achieve this, draw an arc, in gules in the figure, with its center at the point Pcj and of any radius, where Pd is the intersection of the arc with the dexter side and Ps the intersection with the sinister side. The parallel line runs from Pd to Ps. 2) Draw the diagonal in bend of the 3^rd quarter, from Pd to Pcp, and the diagonal in bend sinister of the 4^th quarter, from Ps to Pcp, both in Gules in the figure. Then draw their two perpendicular bisectors, which will intersect the Pd-Ps line at the points Cs and Cd. 4) With Cd as the center, draw the dexter arc of the base passing through Pd, with a radius of Cd-Pd. Similarly, with Cs as the center, draw the sinister arc of the base passing through Ps, with a radius of Cs-Ps. Both arcs intersect at the point Pcp at the base and are shown in Gules in the figure. 5) Draw in Sable the external shape of the coat of arms, formed by the arcs from Ps to Pcp and Pd to Pcp, the dexter flank from Pd to Pdj at the dexter of the chief, the sinister flank from Ps to Psj at the sinister of the chief, and the upper horizontal line of the chief from Pdj to Psj. 6) Draw an eagle displayed using the rule of plenitude. 7) Finally, paint the field of the shield Or and the eagle Sable.

By joining the points Pp at the base with Ps at the sinister and Pd at the dexter with Pj at the chief of the figure I can construct a bar more quickly.

Point Pp at the base

If b and h are the width and height of the shield and b/3 the bar width, then the angle â of the bar is the arctangent of h/b, the angle ô = 90^o-â is complementary to â, the adjacent side to ô is half the bar width, b/6, and the hypotenuse, horizontal Gules at the base, which determines the position of point Pp is equal to the adjacent side divided by the cosine of ô, that is, b/6 / cosine of ô, which can be approximated by 2b/9 with an error of 2.4%, an error that in heraldic art is admissible.

Point Pd at the dexter

The angle ê = ô = 90^o-â is complementary to â, its opposite side is also half the bar width and the hypotenuse, vertical Vert at the dexter, which determines the position of point Pd is equal to the opposite side divided by the sine of ê, that is, b/6 / sine of ê, which can be approximated by 2h/9 with an error of 2.4%.

Point Pj at the chief

The calculation of its position at the chief is equivalent to that of point Pp with the same approximation of 2b/9, horizontal Gules at the chief.

Point Ps at the sinister

The calculation of its position at the sinister is equivalent to that of point Pd and can be approximated by 2h/9, vertical Vert at the sinister.

Coat of arms based on the fourth of the Navarrese «ricoshombres» from [Bosque, J. del; 1540; folio 1 of the numbering of 1613], but, unlike the original, adjusting the height of each square to its width so that they are perfect squares, since in Juan del Bosque’s version—actually in its copy, because the original was stolen—they appear somewhat narrow and elongated. The text heading this article is taken from the transcription made by [Martinena Ruiz, J. J.; 1982; pages 122 and 123].

Under the title «Surname of Baztan» it can also be consulted in [Vega, P. J. de; 1702; folio 4 of the manuscript], although in this case the numbering is not clearly legible; it is the folio following 3, preceding the one also numbered 4 but marked with a letter B, which in turn is followed by folio 6, the number 5 being missing — though not folio 5, which would be 4B.

Baztanes and the Valley of Baztan are mentioned in [Garaycoa Raffo, L.; 2011; pages 8, 29, 30, 33, 37, and 38].

Arms of the King of Leon and Queen of Castile, as interpreted by me with: the two shields shaped with rounded arches; the fields of both coat of arms, the lion, and the castle illuminated; and the whole composition featuring a watercolor finish.

Representation of the coats of arms of Alfonso IX of León and Berenguela of Castile as accolé arms ~ «escudos acolados». King Ferdinand III created his coat of arms, based on the coats of arms of his parents, through the marshalling of their arms ~ «composición de sus armas». For this purpose, the saintly king invented a type of composition, which later became widely used, known as quarterly ~ «cuartelado». Other ways to combine the coats of arms of two spouses are:

• Creating a new dimidiated shield ~ «dimidiado».
• Creating a new impaled shield ~ «partido».
• Adding one coat of arms to another as an escutcheon of pretence ~ «escusón de pretensión», in this case, rather than a claim, there was full ownership.

Coat of arms emblazoned by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with an ogee outer contour and with a freehand finishing.

Coat of arms of the Infanta Berenguela of Castile, 1228–1279, 5^th daughter of the King Ferdinand III of Castile, 1199-1252, and the Queen Beatrice of Swabia, 1205–1235. There are discrepancies regarding the year of her death, with sources suggesting either 1279 or 1288. She bore her father's arms with a bordure compony featuring the arms of Castile and those of her mother, from Swabia. [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1982; page 104 and illustration between pages 112 and 113] writes «We know of a seal of this infanta that displays in the field the royal quarterly, surrounded like a bordure by 4 castles and 4 eagles, alternating», and in the illustration he depicts the bordure with 8 castles and 8 eagles, which is the version I have interpreted. I am particularly fond of compony arms, and this one is, to me, among the most beautiful and quintessentially Castilian.

It is possible that an English-speaking herald would have blazoned it as «Or, three bars Gules.» using the term «bars» instead of «fesses», just as in Castilian one sometimes uses the term «barras» instead of «palos», perhaps because these terms were not completely settled from the outset.

From 1992 to 1998

Azure, a bendlet Argent between six fleurs de lis Or.

Illuminated with lights and shadows and with a metallic and iridescent finish.

Coat of arms of Stephen Tvrtko I (circa 1338-1391) of the House of Kotromanic and 1^st King of Bosnia and it was also the coat of arms of Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 to 1998.

The bendlet is a diminutive of the bend. It is a diminished bend, narrower, and typically reduced to 1/2 (as in this case) or to 1/3 of the width of a normal bend. This piece is called «cotiza» in Castilian, «cotice» in French, and «cotissa» in Italian. Remember that the width of the bend is usually 1/3 of the width of the coat of arms, therefore the width of the bendlet is between 1/3 * 1/2 = 1/6 and 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9 of the width of the coat of arm.

Stephen Tvrtko I of Bosnia, from the House of Kotromanic, was a vassal of Louis I of Hungary. Louis I or Louis of Anjou, known as «the Great», from the Royal House of Anjou-Sicily, of the Capetian Dynasty, hence his coat of arms's 2^nd quarter is seeded with fleur de lis, a feature also present in his father Charles I's arms, known as Charles Robert or Caroberto of Anjou. The Kotromanic family had in their coat of arms fleur de lis Or on a Azure field as a symbol of subordination to the Hungarian royal family.

Blazon keywords: Azure, One, Bendlet, Argent, Six, Fleur de lis and Or.

Azure, a bend between six covered cups Or.

Escudo de azur, una banda acompañada de seis copas todo de oro.

Illuminated with lights and shadows and with a freehand finish.

Around 1155, Beatrix de Villers married Richard le Boteler Pincerna, who became the 4^th Baron of Warrington. The heir of Beatrix and Richard took the surname «le Boteler» and ruled the Warrington region, bearing arms Azure, a bend between six covered cups Or.

In Castilian, a «copa» has a lid and is referred to as a «covered cup» in English. When it doesn't have a lid, it's called a «cup» in English and a «cáliz» or «copón» in Castilian, the latter being a less preferred term for me. In English, the term «chalice» is also used, especially if it's adorned with gemstones, although that's more of an artistic license.

Naipes Heraclio Fournier is a renowned Spanish playing card manufacturer based in Villareal de Álava. The countless hours I have spent holding its cards in my hands are incalculable, whether playing with friends, opponents, or performing magic tricks.

My approach to the method of drawing the bends used by the Spanish Army for the BPAC II coat of arms

Bendy sinister of seven.

Escudo, tres barras.

Note that if the classic width were used for the bends, which is 1/3 of the shield's width, then the bends would cover almost the entire field.

The vertical axis of symmetry has been extended above the chief and below the base, and has been divided into segments of 1/4 of the shield's height, «h» in the diagram that illustrates this article. At the ends of these segments, parallel lines have been drawn to the bend sinister diagonal of the shield. Since the shield has a 5x6 proportion, the angle of inclination of these diagonals is 50.2^o..

Coat of arms interpreted with: a semicircular (round) base; the field and the chief watercolored in the flat tinctures Purpure and Azure; and the charges illuminated, outlined in Sable, with a very hammered metal finish.

Although it is a university of recent creation, in 1994, its best-known campus is the so-called Hospital del Rey, located on the edge of the Way of St. James and originally intended to care for pilgrims and founded, in 1195, by Alfonso VIII of Castile and Eleanor Plantagenet. The effigies of both monarchs decorate the main gate of the Hospital, called the Gate of the Pilgrims, which is, in turn, the symbol of the University of Burgos.

Regarding the escallop (venera), [Valero de Bernabé, L.; Márquez de la Plata, V. M.; 2003; page 197] notes that among the wide variety of shells, it is the scallop or pilgrim’s shell that is most used in heraldry and in blazons it is named «venera», and that it is drawn with its concave side against the field and its convex side visible, with its ribs vertical and its ears (auricles) toward the chief of the shield, and that when the concave side is shown one must specify it in the blazon as «alzada», and when the ears are in a different tincture it is said «orejada», for example, «an escallop Or, its ears Gules».

Arms of the Kingdom of Castile and León created by me as follows: the shield of arms has a rounded (semicircular) base; the quarters are illuminated in flat tinctures Argent and Gules; the castles, lions and crown are illuminated; the lion and its crown are outlined in the colour of the field; the open royal crown; the royal Castilian castle is masoned, that is, outlined in Sable; the whole has an iridescent finish; and the owner, the shield and its blazon are framed within a border representing the arms of the Kingdom, this frame resulting from the combination of 76 small castles and 2 large ones at the corners with 76 small crowned lions and 2 large lions at the other corners;

In the armorial [Urfé; 15^th century; page VIII of the index and page 140 of the contents], reference is made to and the arms of Castile and its kings are blazoned in French, describing its castle and its purple lion crowned Or and rampant.

A Castle Or, triple towered, embattled, port and windows Azure, and masoned Sable.

Un castillo de oro, aclarado de azur, mazonado de sable.

Some of the characteristics of the Castilian castle are specified in the coat of arms in English, for example, «triple towered, embattled», but they are omitted in the Spanish blason, because the Spanish blason considered that the Castilian castle can not be otherwise. These local characteristics, that decades ago were not necessary to specify, could begin to have to be in this global and interconnected heraldic world. [Valero de Bernabé, L.; 2009a] describe the different characteristics between the Castilian, the French, and the English castles among others.

Imaginary coat of arms created by me with the following characteristics: its shape is semicircular; its field is enameled with flat tinctures of Purpure, Vert, Azure, Sable, Or, and Argent; all of its figures are illuminated and enameled in Or, except for the heart, which is Gules; and the whole composition has a watercolor finish.

Within the article on my approach to heraldic classification, you can find the symbolism contained within this shield and its category within heraldry.

The original shield design, along with many others, is registered in [Salmerón Cabañas, A.; 2015a; page 30].

All colors and metals

The heraldic colors Gules, Azure, Vert, Sable, and Purpure can be divided into two sets:

• the energetic colors Gules, Azure, and Vert, and
• the neutral colors Sable and Purpure.

Therefore, the Sable-Purpure combination is not the most vibrant.

I use both Sable and Purpure in this design because it incorporates all five colors and both metals, Or and Argent, representing different heraldic disciplines. Note that I have placed Purpure and Sable far apart, precisely due to the initial explanation.

Coat of arms interpreted in the following manner: the shape of the shield is of a semicircular arch; the field is illuminated in metal Argent; the cross of Alcantara is outlined in Sable and illuminated in Vert; the royal crown is closed, outlined in Sable and illuminated with the metal Or, Argent for the pearls, Azure and Or for the orb, Gules and Vert for the gems, Gules for the inner cloth, and Sable for the visible hollow at its base; and the whole has a slightly hammered metal finish.

Regiment's Motto

The Latin motto «Hoec nubila tollunt obstantia sicut sol» is often translated as «Ride like the sun, disperses the clouds in its path». I would like to offer the following observations on this translation:

• Instead of «disperse», I prefer the verb «scatter» which is more aligned with a cavalry regiment, [Royal Spanish Academy; 2001] «scatter, 3^rd meaning, transitive verb, military term: To break up, rout the enemy, causing them to flee and scatter in complete disorder».
• On the other hand, even though it is about cavalry, I do not find that the Latin motto makes reference to riding, a verb that is also not needed to understand the motto's meaning, and adding an extra word lengthens the motto, reducing its impact.
• Finally, I use «your», instead of «its», so that the motto is a direct and personal rallying cry and not a phrase directed at a third person.

Banner Azure, three fleurs de lis Or.

Pendón de azur, tres flores de lis de oro.

Banner interpreted as follows: rectangular in shape with a 5x6 proportion; the field enamelled in flat Azure; the three fleurs-de-lis illuminated in Or and outlined in Sable; and the whole piece finished with an aged parchment effect.

Starting in 1376, the field sown with fleurs-de-lis was replaced by only three fleurs-de-lis. This change took place during the reign of Charles V of France (1338–1380, King of France from 1364 to 1380).

Edward III Plantagenet (1312–1377, King of England from 1327 to 1377) had incorporated the semé of fleurs-de-lis into his arms as a sign of his claim to the French throne, and Henry IV of England (1367–1413, King of England from 1399 to 1413) again changed the semé into three fleurs-de-lis in his own arms.

These three fleurs-de-lis remained in the royal arms of England until George II (1683–1760, King from 1727 to 1760).

They remained in the royal arms of the French kings until their prohibition during the so-called «Hundred Days», that is, from March 20, 1815, the date of Napoleon’s return to Paris from his exile in Elba, until June 28, 1815, the date of the Second Restoration of Louis XVIII as King of France, when they were reinstated. Finally, after the Revolution of 1830, Louis Philippe I of Orléans decreed their abolition by Order of February 10, 1831.

This banner is a recreation of the one appearing in the armorial [Edward IV of England; 1461; row 23, column 2], although in that armorial the banner seems to be associated with Louis IX of France, perhaps because of the prestige of the saintly King of France, whose arms bore a semé of fleurs-de-lis rather than three.

In England, Wales and Ireland, the term «heraldic visitations» ~ «visitas heráldicas» referred to the inspection tours carried out by the officers of the kings of arms, or even by the kings of arms themselves, with the aim of recording and sanctioning the family trees and coats of arms of the nobility, the counties and the bourgeoisie who bore them.

These journeys took place mainly between the year 1530 and the year 1688. The results of these inspections were recorded in books that could be considered a roll or heraldic census of the upper classes. For this reason, and since then, these records have been a valuable source of information for historians, genealogists and heraldists.

• The 1^st in 1533 visited part of the county of Chester, as part of a journey covering other areas. It is a visitation ordered by the king of arms Thomas Benolte (Benalt) and carried out by the herald William Fellow. This visitation is recorded, for example, in the book [Langton, W.; 1876].
• The 2^nd in 1558, the visitation was carried out by the king of arms Lawrence Dalton himself, accompanied by William Colbarne, a pursuivant ~ official of arms.
• The 3^rd in 1566, by the herald Robert Glover.
• The 4^th in 1580, by the king of arms William Flower and the herald Robert Glover.
• The 5^th in 1591, visiting Chester, the capital, by Thomas Chaloner. This 5^th visitation and the earlier 1^st, 3^rd, 4^th, but not the 2^nd, are recorded in the book [Rylands, J. P.; 1882] and also in [Goldstraw, M. S. J.; 2013a].
• The 6^th in 1613, carried out by the king of arms himself Sir Richard Saint George accompanied by his son and pursuivant Henry Saint George. This visitation is recorded in the book [Armytage, G. J.; Rylands, J. P.; 1909] and also in [Goldstraw, M. S. J.; 2013b].
• The 7^th and last in 1663 by the king of arms William Dugdale. This visitation is recorded in the book [Adams, A.; 1941].

Gules, two castles triple-towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable, in chief, seven mullets Argent, 4 and 3.

Arms depicted by me, in flat tinctures, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a texturized finishing.

Coat of arms of the Comunidad de Madrid emblazoned by me. 5 is the default number of points of the «mullet» in both English and Castilian heraldry. [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 279, figure 126] and [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 312, figure 126] state: «Mullets ordinarily have five rays, or straight points,... when blazoning this figure, the usual practice is to specify the number of rays when exceeding five».

Design rationale

The castles derive from Castile, and the 7 mullets come from the bordure of the city of Madrid; they represent the stars of the Plough, the 7 brightest stars of Ursa Major. This coat of arms was adopted by the Comunidad de Madrid on December 23, 1983. Regarding the symbolism of this coat of arms, José Manuel Huidobro told me: «Each star has five points representing the five provinces surrounding Madrid: Ávila, Segovia, Guadalajara, Cuenca, and Toledo. The castles embody the most characteristic symbol of Castile. Both neighboring communities, Castilla-La Mancha and Castilla y León, display them in their coats of arms. The fact that they are paired symbolizes the Community of Madrid’s claim to serve as a link between the two Castiles». He includes the coat of arms of the Comunidad de Madrid in his book [Huidobro Moya, J. M.; 2024; page 214].

The cottise is the bend diminished to 1/2 or 1/3 of its width, depending on the author.

Cottise 1/2 of the bend width

If the bend width is 1/3 of the shield width b, then that of the cottise is 1/2 x b/3 = b/6. From a bend I can, for example, draw on it the vertical V1-V2 and divide it by Thales into 4 segments, assigning the 2 central ones to the cottise, drawing its sides parallel to the bend. When dividing by 2, an even number, no segment remains centred. Therefore, I divide by 4, double of 2, and group the 2 central segments. The width of each segment is 1/4 x b/3 = b/12 and the 2 central ones sum b/12 + b/12 = b/6.

Cottise 1/3 of the bend width

If the diminution is to 1/3 of the bend width, then the cottise width is 1/3 x b/3 = b/9. From the previous bend I can follow the same process, drawing on the bend the vertical line V1-V2 and dividing it by Thales. In this second case it is divided by 3 which, being odd, leaves one of the segments centred and it is not necessary to divide by double as in the first case. To finish constructing this cottise it suffices to draw through the ends of the central segment 2 lines parallel to the bend of which this cottise is a diminution.

Depending on the author, the counter-cottise is the bar diminished to 1/2 or 1/3 of its width.

Counter-cottise 1/2 of the bar width

If b is the shield width, b/3 that of the bar, then that of the counter-cottise is 1/2 x b/3 = b/6. On a bar I can draw the vertical V1-V2 and divide it by Thales into 4 segments, assigning the 2 central ones to the counter-cottise with sides parallel to the bar. The width of each segment is 1/4 x b/3 = b/12 and the 2 central ones sum b/12 + b/12 = b/6.

Counter-cottise 1/3 of the bar width

If the diminution is to be 1/3 of the bar width, then the counter-cottise width is 1/3 x b/3 = b/9. From the same previous bar I can repeat the process, drawing on the bar the vertical line V1-V2 and dividing it by Thales, in this case, into 3 segments, assigning the central segment to the counter-cottise with sides also parallel to those of its bar.

Coat of arms of Dr. Jacques William Normand Delfin. He is from Mexico and his family comes from Falaise in Normandy. This coat of arms has been created by him and me, and emblazoned by me.

Design rationale

The leopards symbolize the family’s origin in Falaise, Normandy, as well as the nobility of heart to help those in need; their raised claw represents the ardor in striving to accomplish the proposed undertakings; their gaze forward stands for sincerity and honesty in daily actions; their walking in pair conveys the enduring unity of the family; and the gold of their skin reflects the purity of the soul, mirrored along the path of life. The Norman drakkar sailing westward symbolizes both the family’s journey to America in search of a new horizon and the quest for knowledge in science, technology, cosmology, theology, and the Universe itself. The oak acorns represent the Breton branch of the family and embody strength, perseverance, chivalry, kindness, loyalty, sacrifice, and faith. The motto proclaims that God may be our Master, Companion, and Guide, the Light along the path, and the Shield against adversity in life’s journey. The Cross of Lorraine honors Saint Joan of Arc, who bore it upon her standard.

Arms painted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with a pointed external shape and with a iridescent finishing.

Design rationale

The arms of Geremías Reyes Zelaya express the history of his Honduran family: emigration, work, settlement, prosperity, and inherited values. The fess wavy Azure represents the river and the crossing of the frontier, recalling the family's emigration in search of a better life. The three roundels Gules in chief evoke the family's new settlement, prosperity, and involvement in trade. The mount Vert in base represents the family's rural origins, the mountains, the land, and the cultivation of maize and beans. The bordure Gules charged with mullets of four points Or recalls the members of the family group. The falcon Or, belled Gules, chosen as the crest, derives from the armiger's first idea for a personal emblem and provides a distinctive and personal symbol. The motto, «Honesty and Respect», declares the ethical foundation of the family.

Party per fess, the base per pale: 1 Or, a hurt; 2 Gules and 3 Argent, over both a cross of Malta counterchanged. Crest: A closed royal crown.

Coat of arms emblazoned by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, and with a freehand finishing.

Arms of the municipality of Candasnos, Huesca, designed by Valeriano Labara Ballestar, approved by the Government of Aragon. It has been an honor for me to emblazon this version for Valeriano Labara. Bibliographic reference [Labara Ballestar, V. C.; 2019; pages 341-368].

Design rationale

The hurt represents what is known as the Good Raft, a symbol of the town and its people, it is a circular cistern of 40 meters in diameter of Roman origin, and the Maltese cross is a symbol of its connection since 1188 to the Royal Monastery of Sijena of Hospitaller nuns of the Order Malta.

Coat of arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a rough finish.

Design rationale

The arms of Castilla-La Mancha and many of its towns are party per pale; the 1^st quarter is a canting elm = olmo = Casas del Olmo; the 2^nd quarter symbolizes that historically, until 1861, this village belonged to Alarcón town whose castle, of Muslim origin, has a single tower; this area was owned for centuries by the Marquis of Villena and hence the crown of Marquis. My heraldic artwork has been supervised by the Casas del Olmo Residents Association.

Azure, a terraze in base Or, overall a gazelle springing Argent, collared with a chain streaming to sinister Or conjoined to the cross of the Cruz family bendwise.

De azur terrazado de oro, brochante sobre el todo una gacela brincante de plata, acollarada de una cadena extendida hacia la siniestra de oro unida a la cruz de la familia Cruz puesta en banda.

Coat of arms of Rosalía Cruz Carballo designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and refined and emblazoned by me. In heraldry, a gazelle springing represents a broader and more dynamic leap than a gazelle salient, since in the springing attitude none of the hooves touch the ground, whereas in the salient attitude the hind legs, usually held close together, remain grounded while propelling the body upward. The English heraldic term «springing» is commonly used to describe a quadruped depicted in mid-leap, with all four legs clear of the ground, since there is no fully established Castilian translation for this heraldic attitude, I translate it as «brincante». The broad and energetic leap of the gazelle reflects Rosalía’s sporting spirit, vitality, and fondness for running and overcoming obstacles. The gazelle bears around its neck the cross designed by Jon Lanzagorta for his co-father-in-law, Mr. Cruz, her father. For this reason the cross is referred to in the blazon as the cross of the Cruz family and is not specifically blazoned in this case, although it could be described as a cross patty whose arms are each formed by three compony pallets Argent, Purpure and Or.

Csernely is a village in Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county in Hungary.

The official description, not the blazon, is: «...in the blue field of a shield standing on its snout two silver-coloured church towers with onion-shaped cupolas and crosses on their peaks are rising on a green hill. Between them a silver ploughshare is floating with its point upside down...».

The official description use the word «hagymakupolás» in Hungarian. The official text is «Csernely címere: Csücsköstalpú pajzs kék mezejében zöld halmon két ezüst színu, hagymakupolás templomtorony emelkedik, ...», but the cupolas painted by them do not seem the classic «onion-shaped cupolas».

Notice the mount color Vert over a field color Azure, not uncommon in this heraldic tradition.

Party per fess Or and Gules dancetty of three full points and two half upwards.

Escudo cortado, encajado de tres piezas enteras y dos medias.

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 79], on the appropriate dimensions for outlining an indented shield, he explains that «encaxadas» or «emanchadas» refers to «the partitions of the shield, whose pieces fit into each other in the shape of thick and long triangles, which are regularly one-third of the length», that is, of the width of the shield for parted shields, «or of the height of the shield», that is, the height for fess shields, as in this example, «depending on the direction in which these figures are placed in the parted, fess, bend, and cut shields, etc. but being a Chief, they have half the base and the rest as point; and if it were a Fess, it is formed of alternating triangles, which fill it completely».

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 80], on which of the two components of an indented shield acts as the field and which as the piece, he clarifies that «the field of the partition is understood as the one occupying the upper part of the shield, with the lower part at the base considered the piece».

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 80], on how the blazon of an indented shield should be drafted, he establishes that «the number of whole and half triangles must be specified when there is more than one, and likewise, the direction in which the partitions are in the parted, fess, etc.», illustrating it with 2 examples that can also be seen in [Avilés, J.; 1725a; plate 8, illustrations 157 and 158].

G0143, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant for the crest of Daniel John Bugeja, Malta. Hand-drawn delineation by me, showing the granted crest. It should be borne in mind that in heraldry there is no fixed or inherent symbolic meaning attached to charges; any symbolic value, where it exists, derives from the intention of the original bearer or the creator of the arms. Nevertheless, heraldic tradition has preserved historical explanations for the origin of certain charges. In this respect, [Wade, W. C.; 1898; pages 115-116] notes that the lady’s sleeve, of very ancient form, entered heraldry through the custom of knights attending tournaments wearing their ladies’ sleeves as «gages d’amour», and that, in adopting this charge, the knight could symbolically declare: «por el honor de mi dama».

The American College of Heraldry

The arms of David Robert Wooten, as he himself recounts on his website davidwooten.com were registered on 6 November 1992, with number 1,073, in The American College of Heraldry, an institution of which he is a platinum patron. The registered blazon was «Azure, fretty raguly Or», with fretty ~ fretado and raguly ~ ecotado, which in English I have also seen written as knotted.

Lema ~ motto

Of his complete achievement I have here limited myself to interpreting his shield and his motto «Melior nullo nullus melior» which can be translated from Latin as «no soy mejor que nadie, pero nadie es mejor que yo»

County of Cheshire, The Vale Royal, 1656.

Sable, a crozier Or, between three garbs Or.

Escudo de sable, un báculo de oro, acompañado de tres gavillas de trigo de oro.

Coat of arms interpreted with: a rounded base; the field illuminated in Sable; the crozier illuminated in Or, facing right on the shield and outlined in Sable; the garbs illuminated in Or and outlined in Sable; and the whole with a leather texture.

A coat of arms recorded in [King, D.; 1656] which in Cheshire Heraldry is blazoned as follows: «Sable a crozier in pale between three garbs Or».

As a curiosity, it can be observed that in [King, D.; 1656] and in Cheshire Heraldry, the croziers ~ báculos are depicted with their head facing left on the shield, whereas, in general, it is more common to represent them facing right; for my interpretation I have chosen this latter arrangement.

Since the three garbs are arranged in the usual heraldic manner, it is possible to omit the expression «2 y 1» or «ordered», though it may also be included to avoid any doubt.

Design ideas

The heraldic art often involves resolving design challenges while maintaining both aesthetic balance and adherence to tradition. The coat of arms illustrated here draws inspiration from the Dethick-Dethicke family arms of Derbyshire, though it features distinct differences. This design explores the placement of water-bougets, a medieval water vessel, in a 2+2 arrangement, with a fess vair.

One key consideration when arranging charges in heraldry is proportionality. In this case, the fess occupies 1/3 of the coat of arms's width and is positioned 1/3 of the height from the chief, rather than at the exact center, allowing the charges to balance harmoniously. The shape of the shield itself also plays a role: rounded shields can accommodate a 2+2 arrangement more comfortably than shields with a pointed base, which are better suited to 2+1 arrangements, this is de case of Dethick's arms.

Another challenge in heraldic design is asymmetry. To address the natural curves of the shield, the water-bougets may vary slightly in size or placement. This intentional asymmetry can help create a visually appealing composition that respects both tradition and the unique constraints of each design, because, heraldry is not only about rules but also about creativity.

Gules, a fess vair between four water-bougets Or, two in chief and two in base.

Escudo de gules, una faja de veros acompañada de cuatro pares de odres de oro, dos en jefe y dos en punta.

Water-bouget

In German, they are called «Wasserschlauch» in English «water-bougets» or «oges», and in French «bouses» or «chantepleures».

There is no specific heraldic term for them in Castilian. Based on «chantepleures», one could use «cantimploras», which are metallic or at least rigid. On the other hand, «oges» could translate as «odres», as they are typically made of leather as in this case. Additionally, since «water-bouget» are designed as a pair to be carried by a donkey or other animal, I have decided to use «par de odres» to convey the idea of one on each side of the animal.

In English, when there is a single charge, that is, a pair of water vessels, it is written in singular as «water-bouget», as can be seen in [Fox-Davies, A. C.; 1909; figure 551]. [Friar, S.; 1987; page 68] defines «bouget» as «...a stylized representation of a yoke supporting two leather waterbags».

• the description of the 3 quarters.

Remarks to the description of the division of the field:

• The 4 English blazons write 1^st the full division and 2^nd the partial division.
• The 4 Spanish blazons write the divisions of the field in the numbering order of the quarters.

Remark to the description of the 3 quarters:

• The order of the fields is easy except, perhaps, in the last case, but to remember the order, notice that 1 and 2 belong to the 1^st division in the party per pale.

There are several methods to draw a pointed coat of arms, for example, the method of [The Heraldry Society; 2013; page 7]. There are also several pointed coat of arms with the ratio 5/6 between its width b and its height h.

The previous illustation shows my method to draw a 5/6 pointed coat of arms. The center Cd of the dexter arc is 17h/36 = 17b/30 from the top of the shield and its radious is 13h/24 = 13b/20, or what is the same, its diameter is 13h/12 = 13b/10.

Jessed means with jesses, the thongs by which bells are fastened to the legs of a falcon.

The falcon use to be belled and jessed, with bells and leather strips on the legs. The attributes used to be citted in the blazon when its tincture is different that the main element to which it belongs.
