The Council's arms follow the basic Regional design of a St Andrew's cross within a blue and silver bordure and surmounted by a red inescutcheon with a gold fimbriation. The wavy barrulets on the inescutcheon denote the river Tweed - they are four in number as there are four Districts in the Borders Region; the salmon and the ram's head represent its fishing, agricultural and woollen manufacturing interests. The dexter supporter is one of the famous Border knights, and the sinister supporter is the unicorn common to all the Regional Councils' coats of arms. | The Council's arms follow the basic Regional design of a St Andrew's cross within a blue and silver bordure and surmounted by a red inescutcheon with a gold fimbriation.
