I have to confess to a moment of carelessness due largely to the CD labelling which blazons only the two major works. |

Well before the renaissance, the new men were buying up land, seizing cities, glorifying themselves with new titles and heraldic blazons. |
|
The glass lamps of the Mamluk period are decorated with the blazons of the rulers, which symbolise the power of the state. |
|
Its use was strictly the reserve of sultans and particularly of the officers who were awarded individual blazons, each according to their rank. |

Epigraphic details and blazons are often highlighted in brown slip, an approach that echoes the metal inlay on contemporary brass vessels. |
|
The symbol of the double-headed eagle was a popular motif used on blazons by several Mamluk sultans. |

The two small blazons decorated with branches are the coat of arms of the first landowners, the lords of Drazice. |
|
The lower area of the body, before transferring to the base, contains six medallions, three of which contain blazons and the remaining three of which are filled with vegetal motifs. |
|
This table breaks down the official blazons to enable comparison of the differences between the general coat and the coat used in Scotland. |

Personal coats of arms may be freely assumed but the right to these blazons is not protected in any way. |

|
Three blazons divide the inscription on the neck into equal parts, while another three blazons alternate with stylised arabesques around the lower section of the rounded part. |
|
Things that began to seem monotonous in their perfection — including abstractions by Ellsworth Kelly, another steely hedonist who looks particularly strong nowadays — excite as blazons of enduring value. |
|
The coinage certainly blazons some anti-Roman imagery. |
|
It also blazons forth some of the great writer's immortal words. |
