Coat of Arms does my family have one? Unfortunately, not every name was granted a coat of arms. Most commonly, only nobility or high-class families had them because they were granted by kings to recognize achievements.
The symbolism in the design of a family coat of arms or crest (as they are sometime called) can tell you about the original bearers’ achievements and status in society—a real testament to a family’s legacy. The symbols in a Coat of Arms are used to identify families or individuals. Much like we use a signature today. It is a detailed design that often includes a shield, crest, helmet, motto or country of origin, and supporters that is placed on either side of the shield. The image could be used as a whole, or the crest can be used as a simplified symbol used as a clan badge,etc. Click here to go to our store!
