Coat of arms of bahrain

The Bahrain Coat of Arms was originally designed in 1933 by Charles D. Belgrave, British adviser to the emir, as the royal arms of the ruling family. With the proclamation of independence, in 1971, it was adopted as the state coat of arms, which, unlike the previous one, is not stamped with the royal crown.

It is a shield of gules, with the indented boss of five pieces of silver; the red and white colors are the traditional colors of the emirates of the Persian Gulf and the design of the shield coincides with that of the state flag. Around the shield, a lambrequin also of gules and silver, without helmet, habitual element of the heraldic practice of British roots. The silver teeth on the head represent the Pillars of the Islamic faith.^{[citation needed]}
