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.

It was founded by Count Henry of Burgundy as a military and religious order, in the year 1093, in Beira Alta, Portugal, near the river Côa with the initial name of «Ordem de São Julião do Pereiro» ~ Order of Saint Julian of Pereiro.

In the year 1214, the defense of the city of Alcantara after its conquest was entrusted to the Order of Calatrava, but in 1218 the Calatravans relinquished it due to Alcantara being far from Calatrava.

To defend Alcantara, King Alfonso IX of León entrusted it to the new Order of the Knights of Saint Julian of Pereiro, requesting in return a certain level of dependency on the Order of Calatrava, which led the Knights of Saint Julian to adopt the Cistercian rule.

Once established in Alcantara, their original name referring to Saint Julian fell into disuse, and by 1253 there were already references to the «masters of the Order of Alcantara», with Saint Julian of Pereiro becoming the foundational center and a secondary commandery of the order.

On the origin and antiquity of the Military Order of Alcantara, and the form of its Commandery

[Avilés, J.; 1780b; treatise IV, chapter V, page 339] describes it as follows: «The Military Order, which we now call of Alcantara, was formerly that of Saint Julian of Pereiro, so named after the place where it was based, along the banks of the river Côa, in the Bishopric of Ciudad-Rodrigo, established in the year 1176 by King Ferdinand II of León, and confirmed in 1177 by Pope Alexander III. And the reason for changing its first name to the second, was because after the Knights of Calatrava had taken the City of Alcantara from the Moors and defended it bravely thereafter, they found it would be difficult to keep it, as their main house was very distant, from which the other Knights and reinforcements could not come whenever needed.».

[Avilés, J.; 1780b; treatise IV, chapter V, page 340] continues by telling us «They discussed this inconvenience with others they had at the time with the King of León, Don Alfonso IX, and it was resolved that the Master of Calatrava would give that town to the Knights of Pereiro so that they might defend it, as they did, under certain conditions in the year 1218, later performing marvels in its defense, earning through their fame and distinguished feats new graces from the Kings; and seeing how essential their residence was, the Knights of Pereiro moved to the town of Alcantara, establishing their Convent there, and thus transformed into Knights of Alcantara, who were previously Knights of Saint Julian of Pereiro».

The order of the quarters is first the castle of his grandmother, Queen Berenguela of Castile, and second the lion of his grandfather, King Alfonso IX of León; however, the other day I discovered that on the map by [Martineau du Plessis, D.; 1700; volume II, illustration 30, page 126], in the shield framed between parallels 37 and 36 and meridians 21 and 22, the lion occupies the 1^st quarter and the castle the 2^nd quarter; that is, their order appears reversed.

For its better identification, I have painted the millstone with the ring that fixes it to its axis. This ring is called a millrind, it is made of iron, and usually has 4 arms to better fix the millstone. Millrinds may appear on coats of arms independently of millstones. Another heraldic element related to the previous ones is the millwheel, which is a toothed gear that is part of the mill mechanism but should not be confused with the millstone that grinds the grain.

G0066, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant of Andrea Pompili's arms, whose coat of arms has been emblazoned by me. The hand-drawn tree shown in this photograph was originally created for the coat of arms of Andrea Pompili, commissioned by Dr Charles A. Gauci, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta. Some time later, an art collector asked me for a dedicated hand drawing. I chose this tree because its canopy has a distinctive heraldic shape, setting it apart from the other drawings in his collection, as it was specifically designed to fit beneath the two chevronels. This is also the reason for the handwritten note «under a chevron» beside the drawing. Before sending it, I inscribed the sheet with a dedication, which explains the handwritten text visible alongside the artwork.

Coat of arms of Andrea Tamburelli Lanzara di Pietragavina, Marquis Prato di Arnesano, painted by me.

In the upper row I first place the arms of the Tamburelli lineage and then the arms of the Lanzara lineage, which are canting arms, as may be seen in the lion holding a lance. Together they form, in the second row, the impaled arms of Tamburelli-Lanzara, placed beside the coat of arms of the Marquis of Prato di Arnesano. Finally, I combine them to form the coat of arms shown in the third row, where the arms of the Marquis of Prato di Arnesano are incorporated into the arms of Tamburelli-Lanzara by means of a enté en point.

Azure, a wolf's head caboshed Argent, in chief three monstrances in fess proper. Motto: «Fiat Voluntas Tua».

A mug featuring the coat of arms and motto of Bárbaro Jonathan López Linares, Cuba, designed by him and emblazoned by me. My emblazonment was used to personalize this mug. The criterion is that the tinctures must remain consistent within the same interpretation of the arms. If I paint a version of this shield, I will use a single azure for the field and for the mantling, should I depict it; the same or for the three monstrances; and the same argent for the wolf and for the sacred hosts. But in a different interpretation, another azure may be used, provided that it is azure, as well as another or and another argent. The azure used by one artist does not bind the next; that is why we use terms such as azure, which means any blue except sky blue. If we were forced to use exactly the same azure in every interpretation of the same arms, we would have to blazon them, for example, with Pantone codes or RGB specifications, and that is not what we do. Tinctures are fixed in logos, but not in coats of arms; this is one of the reasons why coats of arms leave much more room for artistic expression than corporate logos.

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].

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.

Azure, a bend between six covered cups Or.

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

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.

Barry wavy Argent and Azure; on a chief wavy Murrey, three sea-lions sejant-erect in fess Or.

G0144, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant of the coat of arms of Brian Andrew Beck, USA. The photograph shows my hand-drawn study of the sea-lion sejant-erect. The visible drawing corresponds to the final version, while a first earlier version can be seen beneath it through the translucent paper. This reflects my usual working method: I draw directly in ink, without a preliminary pencil sketch, using long continuous strokes and lifting the pen as little as possible. I work on successive sheets of tracing paper, one laid over another, refining the drawing from one version to the next until I reach a result that satisfies me. The first attempt is rarely successful; the stronger drawings usually emerge in the second or third version, sometimes the fourth, and occasionally after more iterations.

Escudo partido: 1^o de plata, un olmo arrancado de sinople; 2^o de Gules, un castillo con una torre almenada de oro.

Arms emblazoned by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, outlined 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. My heraldic artwork has been supervised by the Casas del Olmo Residents Association.

Quarterly: 1 and 4 Gules, a castle triple towered Or, port and windows Azure, masoned Sable; 2 and 3 Argent, a lion rampant Purpure, armed and langued Gules, crowned Or. Crest: An open royal crown Or.

Pre-existing arms interpreted by me as follows: the shield of arms has a rounded (semicircular) base; the quarterly field, the two castles and the two lions are illuminated; the lion and its crown are outlined in the colour of the field; the open royal crown and the castle are outlined in Sable, in the case of the castle because it is masoned; and the whole has a painted plaster finish.

In [Medél, R.; 1846; plate 10, illustration 4] his interpretation of the arms of Castile and León can be seen.

For the expression «a Castle triple towered» in the English blazon, I have followed [Burke, B.; 2009; pages 12, 27, 41, 51, 76, 104, 106, 109, 150, 159, 171, 189, 200, 226, 273, 281, 282, 287, 322 and others], where it is used more often with a hyphen «triple-towered» and less often without a hyphen «triple towered», which is the form I have chosen.

Quarterly in saltire: 1 Purpure, a crown Or; 2 Vert, a sword point upwards Or; 3 Azure, a crozier Or; 4 Sable, a bezant; an inescutcheon Or charged with a heart Gules; a bordure Argent.

Escudo cuartelado en sotuer: 1^o de púrpura, una corona de oro; 2^o de sinople, una espada alzada de oro; 3^o de azur, un báculo de oro; 4^o de sable, un bezante de oro; un escusón de oro cargado de un corazón de gules; una filiera de plata.

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.

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.

Arms interpreted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a metal beaten finish.

Arms of Charles, Holy Roman Emperor, emblazoned by me. In English heraldry, the term supporters is used in a general sense, whether the supporters are animals, inanimate objects, plants or human figures. There is no strict terminological distinction based on the nature of the supporting figures. In Castilian heraldic tradition, by contrast, a more precise terminology is employed. The term «soportes» is used when the supporters are animals, «sostenes» when they are objects (such as columns or weapons) or plants (such trees), and «tenantes» when the figures supporting the coat of arms are human in form. In addition, inanimate supporters are relatively common in Castilian heraldry, whereas they are much rarer in English heraldry. There is also a difference in blazoning practice in the case of columns. In English, the shaft of the column is treated as the primary element, and the tinctures of the base and capital are then specified. In Spanish, the approach is the reverse: the column is described as a whole, stating its main tincture first, and then specifying that it is shafted in another metal. For example in this case: «Supporters: two columns Argent, capital and base Or» ~ «Sostenes: dos columnas de oro, fustadas de plata».

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.

Arms emblazoned by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a iridescent finishing.

Coat of arms of the Comunidad de Madrid emblazoned by me. Law 2/1983 of 23 December on the flag, the coat of arms, and the anthem of the Community of Madrid, published in the Official State Gazette, number 33 of 8 February 1984, defines this coat of arms in its Article 2 as follows: «...it consists of a single quarter Gules, charged Or with two castles in pair, embattled, donjoned, masoned Sable and ajouré Azure, surmounted in chief by seven mullets Argent, arranged four and three. For a timbre, a closed Royal Crown, which is a circle Or set with precious stones, composed of eight acanthus-leaf fleurons, of which five are visible, interspersed with pearls, from whose leaves rise diadems topped with pearls, converging in a globe Azure, with the demi-meridian and equator Or, surmounted by a cross Or. The crown is lined Gules».

Design rationale

The castles came from Castile and the 7 mullet from the bordure of the city of Madrid, they are the stars of the Plough, the 7 brightest stars of the Ursa Major. This coat of arms was adopted by the Comunidad de Madrid the 23th of December 23 of 1983.

This is the coat of arms of Abdulelah Alyahya (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia), designed by Vittorio Gifra (Italy) under his instructions, revised by Bob Juchter van Bergen Quast (Netherlands) and Kevin D. Couling (United Kingdom), and emblazoned by me (Spain). The arms reflect the heritage of the Alyahya family, descendants of the ancient tribe of Beno Tamim (Altamimi) and linked to the modern origins of Saudi Arabia. These arms exemplify how modern heraldry operates on a global scale, the process involved several countries: a design originating in Italy following the instructions of the armiger in Saudi Arabia, revised by experts in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, and rendered by me in Spain, it serves as an example of international collaboration within the field. In an ordinary, I distinguish between engrailed and invected from the ordinary's point of view; for instance, I define a bordure as invected if, from the interior of the bordure, the edge appears invected (meaning the arcs appear concave); conversely, I say a bordure is engrailed if the arcs appear convex from its interior point of view; in this specific case, regarding a line of division, I describe it as engrailed because, from the perspective of the base of the coat of arms, the arcs of the partition line appear convex [Nisbet, A.; 1816; page 21, pictures 1 and 2].

Coat of arms interpreted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee outer contour and with a leather finishing.

Design rationale

The arms symbolise the dawn of a new life. The field is tierced per fess to evoke the sky in 3 stages: Sable for the darkness of night, Azure for the horizon at first light, and Sanguine for the rising sun. The 7 stars of Ursa Major, in their traditional arrangement, evoke guidance, constancy, and a Dantesque reference, as the constellation appears in the Divine Comedy. The demi-sun in base, gold upon sanguine, marks the moment of emotional awakening, the dawn of love. The scroll motto «Incipit Vita Nova», the first line of Dante’s Vita Nuova, reflects a personal spiritual transformation. The Azure speaks of eternal loyalty, and the silver stars of purity. The choice of Sanguine, both for the sunlit sky and for the scroll and mantling, is also an homage to Beatrice’s dress as described by Dante at their first encounter. All of the above holds a parallel with the bearer’s personal life, which gives this composition a dual significance, both literary and deeply intimate. The raven as crest, a symbol of memory and intelligence, represents the collector’s spirit and a deep inner life.

Coat of arms of Amber Martinez, California, designed by her, improved by Kevin D Couling and Bob Juchter van Bergen Quast and emblazoned by me. The heraldic charge known in English as the «estoile», from the Old French «estoile», modern French «étoile», and in Castilian as the «estrella ondada», is the traditional heraldic representation of a star in English heraldry. It is distinguished by its wavy rays, in contrast to the straight rays of the «mullet» ~ «estrella». The «estoile» is documented from the thirteenth century, when it was often used interchangeably with the «mullet». Over time, however, English heraldry came to distinguish the two charges, the «estoile» becoming the conventional representation of a star with wavy rays, while the «mullet» represented a star with straight rays. Unless otherwise specified in the blazon, the «estoile» ~ «estrella ondada» is traditionally depicted with six wavy points, one point directed to chief, as in the arms shown here, although heraldic practice also admits other numbers of points whenever they are expressly blazoned.

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».

Party per pale Azur and Argent: a chevron between in chief a dressage horse salient, and in base three waves of the sea all counterchanged. Motto: «Prosequitur deinceps».

Coat of arms created with the following characteristics: the base of the shield is pointed; its field is enamelled in plain Azure and Argent; the ordinary and the 2 charges are illuminated in plain Argent and Azure; the horse has a braided and gathered tail, in all my representations; and the whole is outlined of the field and finished with a watercolour effect.

For the angles and proportions of the chevron in this coat of arms I have based myself on some of the chevrons produced by Martin S.J. Goldstraw, who himself bears a Gules chevron in his coat of arms.

Martin Goldstraw is one of the founders of The Cheshire Heraldry Trust, illustrator of the website of this foundation Cheshire Heraldry, author of books on coats of arms and facsimiles, for example, on the county of Cheshire and a passionate devotee of heraldry.

Or, an atom triple-orbited Gules; on a chief Gules, a falcon displayed and jessed Or

Illuminated and a watercolor finishing.

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. In this case, its leather strips are Or, the same tincture than the falcon Or, but I decided to blazoned it «a falcon displayed and jessed Or» to denote jessed but not belled.

Other falcons are also hooded.

The one with the Cross on his back ~ Crouchback (1245–1296)

Arms of England; overall, a label Azure of three points, each charged with three fleurs-de-lis Or in pale.

Arms interpreted as follows: the mouth of the shield is semicircular (round); the field enamelled in a flat tint of Gules; the label and figures illuminated in Or and Azure and outlined in Sable; and the whole finished with a watercolour effect.

He was the second son of King Henry III of England, and took part in the Ninth Crusade, hence the epithet «Cross on the back».

In 1253 he was appointed Earl of Chester, holding dominion, among others, over the county of Cheshire, but the following year Pope Innocent IV granted him the crown of Sicily, so he ceded his earldom to his elder brother Edward I of England, however, he never came to occupy the throne of Sicily.

The label is an honourable ordinary and also «a kind of mark of cadency, and the most noble of all those used to differentiate the Arms of the younger sons of a House» [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 248] and it can likewise be used by the eldest son while his father's arms are still in use, ceasing to bear the label when he inherits his father’s coat. When both the eldest and the second son bear a label, the latter’s label then has more points or is charged with figures to distinguish it.

The label is constructed with «a fillet, which is one-ninth of the width of the chief, with three pendants in the form of carpentry wedges or ill-shaped triangles, joined to it without any line of separation, falling twice as far as the fillet is wide, two placed at the ends and one in the middle, its usual position being in the centre of the chief’s length, without reaching the edges of the shield» [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 248].
