Origin/meaning
The arms were officially adopted in 2019.
The chief is taken from the arms of the Guyenne region. The cross is taken from the arms of several important local families: De Montaigu de Mondenard and the De Rovignan families. The decorated plate refers to the former fayence works, that were famous in the 18th and 19th century.
