This is the coat of arms of Johann Anton Freiherr von Quast that was painted in the Freiherren diploma that was issued in 1790 (source: «Freiherren-Diploma Johann Anton Freiherr von Quast 1790, Bayerisches Hauptstaatsarchiv, königlich-bayerisches Heroldsamt, Bd. 20-1 nr. 26»). This coat of arms has been emblazoned by me because the family needed a modern version that can be used digitally. More information about the family can be found on the website juchtervanbergenquast.wordpress.com.

«Armas antigas» ~ ancient arms of family d’Alpoim, originally from France, emblazoned for Fernando Durán Cabral de Mello d’Alpoim by me according to his instructions and based on descriptions from armorials such as «Nobiliário da Ilha Terceira» by Eduardo de Campos de Castro de Azevedo Soares, «Pedatura Lusitana», on the noble families of Portugal, by Cristóvão Alão de Morais, the chapter «O Solar dos Alpoins» by A. Nogueira Gonçalves, or «Armaria Portuguesa» that describes it in Portuguese «De azul, cinco flores de lis de oiro. T.: braço vestido de azul, a mão de encarnação segurando um listão tambem de azul, e nelle, em letras de oiro, o grito Nostre Dame de Puy» and also in French «D'azur à cinq fleurs-de-lis d'or. C.: un bras paré d'azur, la main de camation tenant un listel d'azur avec le cri, Nostre Dame de Puy, en lettres d'or». In the Velay region, France, the cathedral is dedicated to Our Lady under the title «Notre Dame du Puy», a Marian devotion traditionally associated with the sanctuary of Le Puy-en-Velay.

Coat of arms painted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a leather finishing.

Coat of arms of the Infante Manuel of Castile, 1234–1283, 7^th son of the King Ferdinand III of Castile, 1199-1252, and the Queen Beatrice of Swabia, 1205–1235. They are canting arms of «Manuel» ~ «manu–el» ~ «mano–ala» ~ «hand–wing». For this reason, I describe it as a hand with a wing and not as a wing with a hand. Another theory suggests that, since his maternal grandmother was Irene Ángelo, daughter of the Byzantine Emperor Isaac II Angelos, the 2^nd and 3^rd quarters derive from this lineage. However, this Byzantine emperor did not have a coat of arms in the Western heraldic sense, let alone one featuring an angel's wing wielding a sword. A synthetic theory could be proposed, combining the concept of canting arms with angelic symbolism, referencing his descent from the emperors of Byzantium, something that was undoubtedly of great importance to him. There are explanations about this in [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1982, pages 98-100]. And what's more important, they are not a quartering by inheritance; quarters 2^nd and 3^rd are inherited, but quarters 1^st and 4^th are conceptually invented, which opens up the creative field.

Tierce: 1 Argent, two keys points upwards, in saltire, between in chief an escallop, and in base a mullet of five points environed at dexter by a crescent bendwise azure; 2 Azure, a dexter arm vested, issuant from sinister, grasping a pilgrim's staff palewise, issuant from base, tied to it a gourd bendwise Argent.

Escudo adiestrado: 1^o de plata, dos llaves alzadas en sotuer, acompañadas en jefe de una venera, y en punta de una estrella de cinco puntas, circundada a la diestra de un creciente puesto en banda todo de azur; 2^o de azur, un brazo diestro vestido, moviente de la siniestra, teniendo un bordón de peregrino puesto en palo, moviente de la punta, y atada a él una calabaza puesta en banda todo de plata.

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

Canting arms of Dolores Peregrina Corona designed by Juan Lanzagorta Vallín and me and emblazoned by me. In Castilian heraldic tradition, the «adiestrado» ~ «tierce» used in this coat of arms and its symmetrical «siniestrado» ~ «tierce sinister» are «irregular divisions of the field by one line» ~ «particiones irregulares». That is why I use «tierce» and «tierce sinister» in English. There is another possibility, which is to call the «adiestrado» ~ «pale in dexter flank» and the «siniestrado» ~ «pale in sinister flank», thus ceasing to be a type of «divisions of the field» ~ «particiones» and becoming «ordinaries» ~ «piezas fundamentales». This has implications, as the rule of tinctures would apply if it were considered a «pale» ~ «palo». In any case, I will write the blazon in both ways. Alternative blazon: Azure, a dexter arm vested, issuant from sinister, grasping a pilgrim's staff palewise, issuant from base, tied to it a gourd bendwise; on a pale in dexter flank Argent two keys points upwards, in saltire, between in chief an escallop, and in base a mullet of five points environed at dexter by a crescent bendwise azure.

Design rationale

These are canting arms because her surname is «Peregrina» ~ «pilgrim», and her coat of arms depicts the arm of a pilgrim, as she is one herself, with her staff and her gourd for carrying water, advancing towards the dexter, in order to reach the destination of her three most important life pilgrimages: Santiago de Compostela, Rome, and Jerusalem.
