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

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

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

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

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

* PORCUPINE: The Porcupine is a symbol of Strength against danger, because it closes in on itself and defends itself with its own weapons (quills).

* PELICAN: The Pelican is a symbol of the Charitable and Pious Lord towards his vassals.

* DOG: The Dog is a symbol of Faithful Vassal.

* MALLET: The Mallet indicates War for the damage that it can cause to armor.

* SCEPTER: The Scepter represents Dignity.

* BEZANT: The Bezants, due to its oriental significance, was adopted by most of the Knights who took part in the expedition to the Holy Land.

* CINQUEFOIL: The Cinquefoils symbolize Hope and Joy.
