Coat of arms depicted by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with an ogee external shape and with a watercolor finishing.

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 English I use the word «motto», but in Spanish I usually use the word «lema»; however, when the text identifies the armiger, as in this case, I use the word «divisa».

Coat of arms depicted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with a semi-circular outer contour and with a freehand finishing.

Arms of Charles, Holy Roman Emperor, emblazoned by me. The decision to depict both Pillars of Hercules in Argent arises from a strictly technical and artistic process. My objective was to paint the commander’s badge of the Imperial Hispanic Order of Charles V, a piece that is entirely made of Argent. Working directly on a fully Argent surface made the visual reading of the whole difficult, so I decided, as a preliminary step, to paint the coat of arms in its proper tinctures and, once the chromatic composition was resolved, to convert it into Argent. The commander’s badge of this order is based on its coat of arms and emblem as interpreted and painted by the heraldist and heraldic artist Fernando Martínez Larrañaga. In that interpretation, Fernando represented the Pillars of Hercules entirely in Argent. For the sake of coherence with this model, which is the direct reference for the badge, I followed the same solution and painted the pillars in Argent. I have also painted this same coat of arms with the pillars having Argent shafts and Or bases and capitals.

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].

Fernando Marán Bié, The Armorial Register

Iar 17 FernandoMaranBie TheArmorialRegister jpg

Registered by The International Register of Arms, 1st of December of 2022, Registration number 0690, Volume 4.

In Spanish heraldry, there are three terms for supporters: «sostenes» for objects or plants, «tenantes» for human figures, and «soportes» for animal forms. The following applies to sostenes, tenantes, and soportes. Unlike other heraldic traditions such as English heraldry, in Spanish heraldry there are no rules for the use of supporters; their use is at the armiger's discretion, without specific restrictions. Supporters are not reserved only for nobility; their use is free for all.

In the words of [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 173] «there is no rule that determines the use of tenantes, soportes, and sostenes».

Party per fess: 1 Azure, a Athenian owl Argent, contourné, in chief; 2 Argent, an oak Azure, eradicated, in base; overall a saltire counterchanged.

Escudo cortado: 1o de azur, una lechuza al estilo ateniense, contornada de plata, en jefe; 2o de plata, un roble de azur, arrancado, en punta; brochante sobre el todo un sotuer del uno al otro.

Existing coat of arms which I have interpreted in the following way: the semicircular (round) base; the fields enameled in Azur color and Argent metal flat; the saltire reduced to 2/3 of its traditional width, that is, to 2/9 of the width of the shield, to leave more space for the figures, but without becoming a flanque of 1/9 of the width of the shield; the figures illuminated in Argent and Azure and outlined in the field; and with a watercolor finish.

Eradicated ~ Arrancado

For the tree, in this case an oak with its acorns and sinuous-edged leaves, whose roots are visible, I use the term arrancado following [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 28 and figure 12] when blazoning Vernade in France which says that «trae de gules, y un Árbol arrancado de oro, acostado de dos Estrellas de lo mismo».

In English, the equivalent term for arrancado is «eradicated», from the French «arraché».

Margaret Byrne, sealed

Party per chevron Gules and Vert, overall a chevron ermine between, in the dexter of the chief a dexter hand apaumée couped at the wrist, in the sinister of the chief a key palewise, ward to dexter chief, and in base a boar passant Argent. Motto: «To Thine Own Self Be True» Sable, with initial letters Gules, over a scroll Argent.

Party per chevron Gules and Vert, overall a chevron ermine between, in the dexter of the chief a dexter hand apaumée couped at the wrist, in the sinister of the chief a key palewise, ward to dexter chief, and in base a boar passant Argent. Motto: «To Thine Own Self Be True» Sable, with initial letters Gules, over a scroll Argent.

Design rationale

This design combines Byrne, O'Byrne, Ó Broin arms: «Gules, a chevron between three dexter hands apaumée couped at the wrist Argent», with O'Hanlon, Ó hAnluain arms: «Vert, on a mount in base proper, a boar passant Ermine».

These features embody the heraldic adaptation by Gaelic chieftains, integrating ancient tribal symbolism deeply rooted in Celtic mythology and rich local traditions from Wicklow and Armagh.

This design, while combining elements from each and respects this symbolism:

  • The layout of the traditional Byrne arms was chosen as the basis for the new arms to reflect the armiger's surname, however, for difference only one of the three dexter hands is employed but in the prime dexter position on the shield and retaining its tinctures. The sinister position has a key to emphasise and reflect the motto «To Thine Own Self Be True» as the essential or key message for one's life, integrity and honesty.
  • The base of the shield has the boar taken from the O'Hanlon arms, an ancient symbol of bravery, courage, and tenacity.
  • The chevron ermine was chosen to incorporate an element used in various versions of the Byrne and O'Hanlon traditional arms and to reflect the nobility of these two ancient clans/septs who fought long and hard to maintain their independence right up to the XVII century.

Escudo cortado encajado de oro y azur, brochante sobre la partición una faja de azur cargada de una estrella de cinco puntas de oro; en un jefe cosido de oro, un águila surmontada de una corona ambas de sable.

Arms painted by me, illuminated with lights and shadows, contoured in Sable, with an ogee outer contour and with a freehand finish.

The ancient arms of the family Tamburelli, Lords of Pietra Gravina, as used by Don Eugenio Ugo Augusto Tamburelli, emblazoned by me. These arms have been requested by Andrea Tamburelli Lanzara di Pietragavina. There are heraldists who consider the chief to be an ordinary, and therefore a metal chief on a metal field violates the rule of tincture, which prohibits metal on metal, I share this view. Others understand the chief as a division of the field, and thus a metal chief may appear next to a metal field without breaking the rule. For this reason, in these cases, I use the term «cousu» not as a heraldic attribute or a justification, but rather as a signal that, depending on whether the chief is seen as an ordinary or a field division, this arrangement may or may not be problematic. It also serves to show that I am fully aware of the issue. In Italy, and this is an Italian coat of arms, there are numerous arms with an eagle displayed Sable over a chief Or, which clearly corresponds to the imperial arms, «Or, an eagle displayed Sable». These chiefs have their origin in the Guelph and Ghibelline conflicts, the papacy against the empire, with the Ghibellines, supporters of the Holy Roman Empire, frequently adopting the so-called «capo dell'Impero», a chief Or with an eagle Sable, as a symbol of their allegiance to the Emperor. Many of these «capo dell'Impero» resulted metal on metal.

[Friar, S.; 1987; pages 156-157] says of the vair: «originates from the fur of a species of squirrel... which was popular in the Middle Ages as a lining for the garments of those not entitled to wear ermine. The animal was blue-grey on the back and white underneath. 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».
