Many of the members of the Heraldry Society are armigerous, ie. they have a coat of arms. This gives us an opportunity to introduce you to the wide range of designs and styles that are used for modern, and ancient, heraldry. The arms are organised by the member’s surname.

The arms communicate the faith of the armiger, her participation in music, particularly vocal, and a love of art and writing. Azure and Argent are the armiger’s favourite colours and symbolize spirituality and purity. The voice of the bluebird symbolizes vocal music, and its feathers symbolize quills for art and writing. The bordure Sable symbolizes safe space.

Symbolism: The tinctures Azure and Or are taken from the flag of Madeira Island, the armiger's place of birth. The oriental dragon represents the armiger's Chinese zodiac as well as his interests and connections within Asia. The triangle and rose are a symbolic of the armiger's spirituality and the joy that he must strive for in life. Finally the crescent symbolizes the armiger's hope for a better future.
