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

* ARROW: The Fess represents Readiness (for battle); if depicted with a cross, represents an affliction.

* WINDMILL: The Windmills and their Wheels are a symbol of Obedience, because they face the violence of the current and obey the movement that it prints.

* MERMAID: The Mermaid is a symbol of Eloquence and Seduction.

* CAULDRON: The Cauldrons along with other vessels: cups, jugs and kettles, which were used to handle victuals, were formerly the Richman brand.
