Brief History…  Coats of Arms date to the early Middle Ages. In the early twelfth century, helmets and other armor began making it difficult to tell armed warriors apart

More History… Over time, shield emblem designs became enduring symbols of their owners, and of their owners' families. It became quite fashionable to have a "coat of arms", so people hired artists to design them. The designs weren't just used on shields. They were applied on tunics, saddle blankets, banners and tapestries.

A unique visual…  In an era when few people could read or write, coats of arms made it easier for people to recognize each other's marks.  Before you design your own coat of arms, it'll be useful to look at a few traditional heraldic designs. Observe the traditional design elements.

Used as a signature too…  They were duplicated in sculpture and architectural features. They were used in signs and advertisements. They were carved into coins, jewelry (e.g. signet rings) and the personalized stamps for sealing letters.

Heraldic Colors Yellow or Gold - Generosity White or Silver - Peace & Sincerity Black - Constancy (& sometimes Grief) Blue - Loyalty & Truthfulness Red - Military Fortitude & Magnanimity Green - Hope, Joy & sometimes Loyalty Purple - Royal Majesty, Sovereignty & Justice
