2) OR (Gold): Nobility, Magnanimity, Wealth, Power, Light, Constancy and Wisdom.

3) AZURE: Blue color that symbolizes Justice, Zeal, Truth, Loyalty, Charity and Beauty.

Next lets look at the characteristics of some figures that we can find in heraldry and crests:

* EMPIRE: The Head of the Empire, belonging to Italian heraldry, represents a political alliance with the Ghibelline party (derived from the Hohenstaufen, Lords of Waibling) who were loyal to the Emperor.

* SUN: The Sun is a symbol of Sovereigns and Kings, those who with their power vivify the entire State; It is an emblem of Eternity, Greatness, Power, Providence, Illustrious Nobility and Magnificence.

* TOWER: The Tower represents the Generosity with which the Knight offers himself at the service of his Country and his King.

* RAVEN: The Raven is a symbol of the Bold and Courageous Spirit that risks itself in defense of its benefactors.

* CHEVRON: The Chevron symbolizes the boots and spurs, and for this reason it was granted as an adornment of the shield to the Knight who was wounded from the combat in his legs.

* MULBERRY: The Mulberry symbolizes Prudence and Wisdom.

* CINQUEFOIL: The Cinquefoils symbolize Hope and Joy.
