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

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

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:

* EMPIRE: The Head of the Empire, belonging to Italian heraldry, represents a political alliance with the Ghibelline party (derived from the Hohenstaufen, Lords of Waibling) who were loyal to the Emperor.

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

* HEART: The Heart is a symbol of Vigilant Vassal. In its fiery color, it demonstrates Warmth of mind and loving expression of Affection.

* MARTLET: The Martlets mean the number of defeated enemies and are the distinctive mark of the fourth son.
