Basic parts and terminology
Above the helmet is a rope-like piece of cloth,
usually depicted with alternate bands of color.
This object is to support the Crest. The crest
can be a simple object or animal. Sometimes
it is very complicated, almost having a whole
coat of arms itself.

The fabric which drapes from the helmet is
called the Mantle. The colors of the mantle
reflect the colors of the owners Coat of Arms.

The crown shown here tells us that this Coat of
Arms belongs to royalty. Most people would
not have this symbol.
4
The sides of the Coat of Arms sometimes have
Supporters. Traditionally, the grant of a
supporter was an honor to be earned, and it is
possible to have only a single support. Also,
the supporters do not have to be the same
figure on both sides.

The supporters usually stand on a  Base. This is
another opportunity to use symbolism. The base
can be rock, grass, branches or water.

The bottom of the Coat of Arms can have a
Motto Scroll. This is where you put your catch
phrase, usually in Latin.

Your Coat of Arms goes here. The shield
shape shown is the most typical, although the
straight edge shield also works.
