Emblema, un escusón, llameante en orla de Dieciséis llamas y radiante de sesenta y cuatro líneas movientes todo de gules.

Its focus on heraldic art, along with its foundation in 1987, makes it a pioneering institution in this field on a global scale.

The Society of Heraldic Arts enjoys significant international recognition among heraldic artists, designers, and craftsmen, and its website is heraldic-arts.com.

Its members cover the full range of activities within heraldry for individuals, personal heraldry, public and private entities, socioeconomic heraldry, as well as municipalities, regions, etc., governance heraldry.

The Society of Heraldic Arts used to publish a quarterly magazine called «The Heraldic Craftsman», which was sent to all its members, but it is no longer in publication. The Society also provides advice on the correct use of heraldry to enhance corporate and personal identity.

Gules, two Axes Argent, hafted Or, addorsed, issuant from the base; overall, at the nombril, an Escutcheon Or.

Escudo de gules, dos hachas adosadas de plata, fustadas de oro, movientes de la punta; brochante sobre el todo, en el ombligo, un escudete de oro.

Coat of arms interpreted with: the semicircular shape; its field illuminated with Gules; its figures and escutcheon illuminated with Or and Argent and outlined in Sable; and with a free hand texture.

At the nombril

A distinctive feature of this coat of arms is that its escutcheon, instead of being overall in the center, is positioned on a point of the coat of arms called the nombril, which, as we learn from [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 159 and illustration 19] and also [Avilés, J.; 1780a; pages 147 and 148], in «Heraldry, the nombril of the coat of arms, is the place through which the human body receives nourishment in the mother's womb, and in the shield, it corresponds to the point where the fess ends and the base begins.».

If this escutcheon, «escudete» in Castilian, had been positioned in the center of the coat of arms, then it would have to be blazoned as the piece called an inescutcheon, «escusón» in Castilian. In fact, the Norsk Heraldisk Forening uses the English term «escutcheon» to describe the blazon of its arms.

Argent, a cross patty Gules, cantoned of four mullets of eight points Azure; on a chief Sable, an elephant passant Or.

Escudo de plata, una estrecha patada de gules, cantonada de cuatro estrellas de ocho puntas de azur; en un jefe de sable, un elefante pasante de oro.

Coat of arms of the Registro Internacional de Armas Gentilicias interpreted as follows: with a pointed base; the field in plain Argent metal; the chief illuminated in Sable; the elephant illuminated in Or and outlined of the field; the narrow patty cross illuminated in Gules and outlined in Sable; the eight-pointed stars illuminated in Azure and outlined of the field; and the whole with a lightly beaten metal finish.

At the following RIAG address escueladeheraldica.es/armorial-riag-pagina-1 the blazon of this coat of arms can be found written as «De plata, crus estrecha paté de gules, cantonada de cuatro estrellas de ocho puntas de azur; jefe de sable, con un elefante de oro pasante».

The most common star is the five-pointed one, therefore, when the number of points is not stated five are assumed, so, for example, [Avilés, J.; 1780a; página 27, ilustración 6] on Guillaume in France writes «trae de plata, y una Faxa de azur, cargada de una Estrella de oro, y acompañada de tres mirletas de sable» and in his illustration number 6 the star has 5 points. But when the number is other than 5, it must be specified, for example, [Avilés, J.; 1780a; página 92, ilustración 197] on Oschoven on the Rhine writes «trae de plata, y una Estrella de seis rayos de gules en Gefe, flanqueado en óvalo de sable» and it is for this reason that in the blazon included in this article, in addition to specifying the number 8, the term «rayos» has been used instead of its synonym «puntas».

Emblem, two two-handed swords in saltire Argent, hilted Or. Crest: A royal crown Or.

Emblema, dos mandobles en sotuer de plata, guarnecidos de oro. Timbrado de una corona real.

Emblem interpretation with: the two-handed swords placed along the diagonals of an imaginary rectangle, with a 5x6 proportion, like a shield, that is, with angles of 50.2°, between the axis of the two-handed swords and the imaginary base of the emblem, unlike the original emblem where the two-handed swords are on the diagonals of a square, therefore with angles of 45°; the two-handed swords and the closed royal crown are outlined in Sable, illuminated and the whole with a raised-stroke execution.

This emblem of the Royal Association of Hidalgos of Spain has 2 two-handed swords that, unlike usual swords, due to their great length and weight, their fencing must be two-handed, hence their name.

The Spanish word «mandoble» comes from «mano doble», meaning «double hand», and refers to a sword wielded with both hands, the equivalent of the English «two-handed sword».

It is known that they are two-handed swords because the 2 that appear in the emblem have a crescent or crossguard in their iron. This crescent is called in Castilian «falsaguarda» and also «ganchos de parada» and its functionality is to protect from the slashes that the opponent could give close to the blade of the two-handed sword.

Blazon keywords: Two-handed sword, Argent, Hilted, Or, In saltire, Crest, Closed royal crown and Crown.

Royal Council of the Orders of Chivalry, of Santiago, Calatrava, Alcantara, and Montesa.

Emblem quarterly per saltire: 1, a cross of Saint James; 2, a cross of Calatrava; 3, a cross of Alcantara; 4, a cross of Montesa.

Emblema cuartelado en sotuer: 1^o, una cruz de Santiago; 2^o, una cruz de Calatrava; 3^o, una cruz de Alcántara; 4^o, una cruz de Montesa.

Interpretation of the emblem of the Royal Council with: its four crosses outlined in Sable, illuminated in Gules, Vert, and Sable; and a heavily hammered metal finish.

There is another version of this emblem of the Royal Council with the crosses of its four orders of Santiago, Calatrava, Alcantara, and Montesa outlined in Or instead of Sable.

Blazon keywords: Cross, Quarterly per saltire, Cross of Saint James, Cross couped, Cross of Calatrava, Cross of Alcantara and Cross of Montesa.

Argent, a crucible Argent, enflamed and on a bonfire hoguera Gules and Or. Crest: A closed royal crown Or, with eight arches, visible five. Motto: «Limpia, fixa, y da esplendor» Or over a scroll Azure.

Escudo de plata, un crisol de plata, llameante y sumado a una hoguera de gules y oro. Timbrado de una corona real cerrada. Lema: «Limpia, fixa, y da esplendor» de oro sobre una filacteria de azur.

Interpretation made from the Royal Academy emblem: transforming it into a semicircular-based shield, instead of its oval shape; with its motto on a scroll beneath the base, instead of surrounding it; keeping the closed royal crown in its place; with everything illuminated except the field which is in plain color; and the whole outlined in sable and with a parchment-like finish.

In this interpretation, on the Argent field, the Gules fire of the bonfire completely surrounds the Argent crucible, to avoid the metal Argent on the same.

To write the blazon for this coat of arms I use the heraldic term «llameante». Therefore, I do not follow [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 82 and figure 163] when he writes «...y un Fénix de gules sobre una hoguera encendida de lo mismo.». He uses this example to illustrate the 2 fundamental uses of the term «encendido» which is said when «the Eyes of animals... are of a different color» and «also of a burning Bush and the same for a Torch, when the flame is of a different tincture».

Blazon keywords: Without divisions, Argent, One, Crucible, Enflamed, Bonfire, Gules, Or, Closed royal crown, Crown, Motto, Scroll and Azure.

Style keywords: Semi-circular, Illuminated, Outlined in sable and Parchment.

Within socioeconomic heraldry, I classify the arms of all collectives not included in the previous categories, such as, for example, commercial societies, which may represent companies, their brands, and products, sports clubs and federations, associations, professional colleges, educational institutions, arms granted or assumed collectively, etc.

For example, the coats of arms of universities, both private and public, belong to this category, the former naturally and the latter considering their appropriate autonomy from state powers. In this way, the coat of arms of the IESE, as a business school, is an example of socioeconomic heraldry.

Also included are the coats of arms of associations, like the Norsk Heraldisk Forening, and of companies, such as the arms of Alea Capital.

This category partially coincides with what [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 119] refers to as «representative heraldry».

Azure, in base an open book Argent, in chief a sun in splendour Or.

Escudo de azur, un libro abierto de plata surmontado de un sol de oro.

Coat of arms interpreted with the following features: the base is semicircular (round); the field and charges are illuminated in the tinctures Azure and the metals Argent and Or, all outlined in Sable; unlike other variants the sun’s rays are not black sino de oro y el texto politécnico del libro es legible; y the whole finished with a rough-paper texture.

For my interpretation of this coat of arms, the text I have chosen to write on the pages of the open book is taken from [Cuena Bartolomé, J.; 1968; page 417, section 2, paragraphs 2^o, 3^o y 4^o], which begins with the phrase «Se planteaba», a phrase very characteristic of José Cuena Bartolomé.

He elegido estos paragraphs porque son de José Cuena, 1937-1999, Professor of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at the Technical University of Madrid (UPM), who was my teacher and PhD supervisor, because in them are combined hydraulics, the use of the computer, mathematical simulation models, economic cost considerations, data in the form of time series, the underground, the oceanic, irrigation,... and, therefore, they combine various branches of engineering and study topics from many of them, such as civil engineering, computer engineering, agricultural engineering,... Additionally, as this text is almost half a century old, it is technically historical, no longer at risk of obsolescence, a risk that more recent texts would indeed have.

Objectives and activities

The Heraldry Society of Scotland ~ «The Heraldry Society of Scotland», was founded in 1977. Its objectives are to promote the study of heraldry and to encourage its correct use both in Scotland and abroad.

The HSS (acronym for The Heraldry Society of Scotland) encourages those who have a coat of arms and those who intend to adopt their own arms to become members of the society and also encourages to join all those interested in Scottish heraldry, therefore the HSS admits and has members from all over the world.

The HSS holds active and regular meetings throughout the year and organizes conferences and visits to places of historical and heraldic interest, both within Scotland and in other countries.

Online content

They also maintain and update a website, whose domain is Heraldry-Scotland.co.uk, with interesting and abundant reading material, among which their list of online armorials with blazons in English stands out, among which the following armorials can be highlighted:

• Sir David Lindsay's Armorial from 1542, with 504 coats of arms and identification letters «DL», from «DL001» to «DL504». Includes imaginary coats of arms, for example, that of «DL011» of Hector of Troy which it imagines as «Sable, two lions combatant Or», which [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 7] blazons with a Gules field, this difference would allow tracing the sources of each author, which would be interesting as it is, moreover, imaginary.
• Hamilton Armorial, from 1560, with 82 coats of arms they say, although only 79 appear, and identification letters «HM», from «HM001» to «HM079», where for example, «HM001» is the arms of Scotland «Or, a lion rampant Gules armed and langued Azure within a double tressure flory counter-flory Gules» and «HM026» is the insignia of Scotland «Or, a lion rampant within a double tressure flory counter-flory Gules».
• Queen Mary's Roll from 1562, with 204 coats of arms and identification letters «QM». from «QM001» to «QM204».
• Forman's Armorial from 1563, with 258 coats of arms they say, although only 247 appear, and identification letters «FAL», that is, from «FAL001», the arms of Scotland, to «FAL247».
• Slains Armorial from 1565, with 712 coats of arms they say, although only 638 appear, and identification letters «SL», that is, from «SL001» to «SL638».
• Armorial of Sir David Lindsay of the Mount, Secundus from 1599, with 285 coats of arms and identification letters «DLS».
• Seton Armorial from 1599, with 422 coats of arms and identification letters «SN», from «SN001» to «SN422».
• Dunvegan Armorial estimated to be around 1600, with 282 coats of arms they say, although only 52 appear, and identification letters «DV», only 2 digits and without leading zeros, from «DV1» to «DV52».
• Kings and Nobilities Arms, 2^nd volume from 1638, with 111 coats of arms and identification letters «KNB», from «KNB001», the arms of the King of Scotland, to «KNB111».
• Nisbet's A System of Heraldry published in 1722, with 2,608 coats of arms, according to my count, and which I reference as [Nisbet, A.; 1722], 1^st edition and [Nisbet, A.; 1816], for a later one that I have available. On the same page appears the blazon of Alexander Nisbet himself, in entry 1,926 according to my calculations, as «Argent, three boars' heads erased Sable within a bordure invected Gules», that is, «Argent: three boars' heads erased Sable; a bordure invected Gules» where «invected» ~ «acanalado» as opposed to «engrailed» ~ «angrelado».

I also find very interesting, for example, their pages on the basic principles of heraldic design, written by Doctor Patrick Barden.

Quarterly Azure and Gules; overall a leopard face, crowned Or, langued Gules, within a tressure flory Or.

Escudo cuartelado de azur y gules; brochante sobre el todo, una cabeza de leopardo coronada de oro, lampasada de gules, dentro de un trechor flordelisado de oro.

Interpretation I have made: as a pointed shield; with its quarters enamelled in plain Azure and Gules; its tressure flory and its leopard face outlined in Sable, shaded and illuminated in Or with the tongue in Gules; and the whole with a beaten metal finish.

In its own publication [The Heraldry Society; 2013; página 6] the blazon is written as «Quarterly Azure and Gules a Lion's Face crowned with an Ancient Crown Or within a Tressure flory on the outer edge of the same» where:

• they specify the crown as «Ancient Crown»,
• they use the term «flory» ~ «fleury»,
• they assume the tongue is Gules,
• in some interpretations they assume the eyes are Sable, one would say enkindled Sable, initially I also illuminated the eyes in Sable, but currently I paint them in Or as I believe they should be, and
• finally for the «trechor» ~ «tressure» they clarify it is on the outer edge «on the outer edge» and that its tincture is «of the same» ~ «de lo mismo» as the leopard face, that is the metal Or.

I hold the University Specialist degree in Real Estate Management and Administration, awarded by the Department of Private Law of the University of Burgos.

Emblem Azure, Saint Michael Argent, vested and nimbed Or, grasping in his dexter hand a spear Or, point downward, and in his sinister hand bearing [ Gules, a chain orlewise, crosswise, and saltirewise Or, charged in the fess point with an emerald Vert, of Navarre ], upon a dragon Vert, armed, langued, fanged, and the eyes Gules.

Emblema de azur, un San Miguel de plata, vestido y nimbado de oro, teniendo en su diestra una lanza de oro, con la punta hacia abajo y en su siniestra trae [ escudo gules, una cadena puesta en orla, en cruz y en sotuer de oro, cargada en el centro de una esmeralda de sinople, de Navarra ], sostenido por un dragón de sinople, armado, lampasado, fierezado y encendido de gules.

Emblem interpreted by me as follows: an oval shape with proportions 5x6, wider than the original; the field illuminated in Azure; its charges outlined in Sable and illuminated in the colours Gules and Vert and the metals Argent and Or; the Archangel Saint Michael vested in Or, unlike others who appear in Argent; his emerald simplified into an area enameled Vert; and the whole emblem has a lightly beaten metal finish.

Due to its special characteristics, the difficulty in complying with the first rule of heraldry concerning metals and colours, and out of prudence, I categorize it as an emblem rather than a shield.

In a relief of the Church of Saint Michael the Archangel in Estella, Saint Michael can be seen fighting a dragon that represents the devil, in a similar but mirrored arrangement to that of this emblem. In that relief, the Archangel Saint Michael bears a pre-heraldic shield with its umbo. According to [Menéndez Pidal de Navascués, F.; 1963], the umbo of the shield is a reinforcing element that is the predecessor of what would later become the pommelly carbuncle of the shield of the Kingdom of Navarre.
