The Latvian national coat of arms was designed by the Latvian artist Rihards Zariņš. Thus, the coat of arms combines symbols of Latvian national statehood, as well as symbols of its historical regions. It was created using new national symbols, as well as elements of the coats of arms of Polish and Swedish Livonia and of the Duchy of Courland and Semigallia. The Coat of arms of the Republic of Latvia was officially adopted by the Constitutional Assembly of Latvia on 15 June 1921, and entered official use starting on 19 August 1921. ![]() Two oak branches fructed Vert tied together by a ribbon Sanguine charged with a bar Argent Per fess and in base per pale: 1st Azure, a demi-sun issuing from base Or 2nd Argent, a lion rampant contourné Gules 3rd Gules, a gryphon segreant brandishing in the dexter claw a sword Argent.ĭexter, a lion rampant Gules, and sinister, a griffin segreant Argent both langued Or
