Based on the latter seal the arms were granted with three golden lions and a letter G for Gavere, to distinguish the arms from Dikkelvenne, which had a D. In 1838 a wrong advise to the municipality resulted in new arms, with the thre elions in a bordure. Only in 1993 the three lions were retsored, now in the proper, silver, colour.
