One of the most distinctive qualities of heraldry is the use of a limited palette of colours and patterns, usually referred to as tinctures. These are divided into three categories, known as metals, colours, and furs.

Next we are going to see the meanings of three tinctures:

1) GULES: Red color that symbolizes Strength, Victory, Daring and Highness.

2) PURPLE: Justice, Wit, Truth, Greatness, Wisdom and Love; those who wear this color are obliged to defend the Prince defending ecclesiastical people.

3) SABLE: Black color that symbolizes Prudence, Sadness, Rigor, Honesty and Obedience.

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.

* THISTLE: The Thistle symbolizes in Heraldry a heart nobly humble, but so careful of its honor, that it defends with its sword the luster of its lineage.

* CHECKY: The Checky symbolizes Military Art, for which reason it is usually awarded to soldiers who have exposed their lives in combat.

* GRAPE: The Grapes symbolizes Liberality, felicity, and peace; also, association with wine-making.

* ROUNDLE: The Roundles symbolize the bucklers that the soldiers carried as a defensive weapon.

* SWAN: The Swan, by the tradition that he sings sweetly when he is about to die, means Ancient Nobility, without stain of any kind, who dies courageously executing glorious undertakings.

* PALM: The Palm Tree symbolizes Victory and Triumph.
