Official blazon:
Escudo de prata, obelisco de azul; chefe de azul com arado de prata realçado de negro; em ponta, barco de pesca artesanal com dois remos, tudo de vermelho e realçado de prata, vogante sobre três faixetas ondadas de verde e prata. Coroa mural de prata de quatro torres. Listel branco, com a legenda a negro em maiúsculas : “ LAVRA “.

Origin/meaning :
The arms were officially granted on May 19, 2004 and before on November 27, 1996. The only difference is the crown and the name (see below).

Unfortunately I have no background information on these arms. Any information is welcome !
