A circular image with a shield at the center, in which an argent chevron divides an azure field, with three argent stars above, and a rose beneath. At the helm, atop a crown, is a knight's helmet backed in leafing; at the crest is a three-quarter image of a warrior, clad in armor, and brandishing a banner. At the base of the shield are three medals. Surrounding the shield is a border with a motto (partially obscured by other images). A second motto appears on a banner below, which reads Spiandact Tapeir Neill. The shield is flanked by two gorged owls gardant.
