Next we are going to see the meanings of three tinctures:
1) SABLE: Black color that symbolizes Prudence, Sadness, Rigor, Honesty and Obedience.
2) PURPLE: Justice, Wit, Truth, Greatness, Wisdom and Love; those who wear this color are obliged to defend the Prince defending ecclesiastical people.
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:
* CHAIN: The Chain generally means Captivity suffered by the defense of the King or the Homeland.
* SPARROWHAWK: The Sparrowhawk is a symbol of Cunning.
* GRAPE: The Grapes symbolizes Liberality, felicity, and peace; also, association with wine-making.
* ANGIO: The Chief of Angio, belonging to Italian heraldry, represents a political alliance with the Welf party (derived from Welf, Duke of Bavaria) who were loyal to the Pope.
* GYRON: The Gyron represents Favor.
* HERON: The Heron represents Prudence in preventing dangers, guarding against them.
* BOAR: The Boar symbolizes Dauntless and Boldness.
* PEACOCK: The Peacock, by its head denotes Prudence; for his chest, of gold and sapphire, Loyalty, Fidelity and Zeal; in the hidden and submissive of his steps, Secret, and in the terribly out of tune voice of his singing, Terror of enemies.
