Origin/meaning

The tinctures represent the two colors most associated with the Holy Virgin Mary: blue and white. The swan symbolizes beauty and elegance—qualities the armiger deeply admires and finds joy in, whether found in manmade creations such as buildings and art, or in the natural world during a walk in the woods. The laurel wreath serves as a substitute for a crown and reflects the armiger’s interest in royalty.

The lower division returns to a religious theme. The escallop represents femininity, pilgrimage, and divine protection. It is inverted, facing upwards toward heaven, and the blue tincture again refers to the Virgin Mary. The plate on the escallop stands in for a pearl, a symbol of purity, which is one of the main attributes of the Holy Virgin.

This combination of escallop and plate is repeated in the crest, in keeping with the Germanic heraldic tradition of repeating shield charges in the crest. The armiger, being from Austria, followed this tradition and avoided adding further elements to prevent visual overload.

The motto In fide constanti, meaning “In constant faith,” is intended as a reminder to the armiger to never lose faith in God.
