Escudo de oro, en una pira de sinople acompañada de dos mangas de gules, un pergamino abierto de plata, con un sello de lacre pendiente al natural.

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

G0076, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant of Claes Zangenberg's arms, whose coat of arms has been emblazoned by me. The Castilian «pila» I render in English as «Pile issuant from base», following [Académie internationale d'héraldique; 1952; figure 121]. Friar [Friar S.; 1987; page 15] writes it as «Pile reversed issuant from the base», but in [Friar S.; 1987; page 250], when transcribing a grant of the College of Arms of London, he uses «Pile issuant from the base». Other authors also refer to it simply as «Pile reversed». I prefer «Pile issuant from base».

G0076, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant for the arms of Claes Zangenberg's arms, whose full achievement has been emblazoned by me for such grant. This full achievement includes a crown of Baron, it is essential to emphasize that the inclusion of these ornaments does not constitute legal recognition of titles of nobility by the Republic of Malta; rather, it reflects the Office's mandate to preserve and document the cultural and heraldic heritage of the petitioners. The current Chief Herald of Arms of Malta has clarified in various interviews and lectures that, as the Constitution of Malta has not recognized titles of nobility since 1975, the legal framework allowing the Republic of Malta to register a coat of arms featuring coronets is to treat it as historical and cultural evidence of a lineage. This approach is detailed in the book [Gauci, C. A.; 2023; 145], «The Way Forward»: «Thus, although the State recognizes the coat of arms of an individual as granted/registered by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta, this does not mean that the Chief Herald or indeed the Republic of Malta are also automatically recognizing any title of nobility used by the individual in question. The Arms are simply the reflection, verbal and pictorial of any honours mentioned in the Letters Patent or Document of Registration». It is under this premise of cultural heritage that the Office of the Chief Herald is integrated into Heritage Malta, the Maltese national agency for museums and the conservation of cultural heritage, established by the Cultural Heritage Act enacted in 2002. In the case of heraldry, it is regarded as intangible cultural heritage.
