In June 1932 the first arms for Macau were designed and proposed to the Ministry of Colonies. The arms follow a centralised pattern with a bordure with the castle of Portugal and a cross as used by the Portuguese discoverers. For each province a separate symbol was used as the main charge. For Macau a dragon with a Portuguese shield was chosen. These arms were, as far as I know, never officially adopted and replaced in 1935. | |||

In the 20th century all Portuguese colonies were granted arms based on a similar design; the small shields of the arms of Portugal in the upper right, a local symbol in the upper left and the base with waves (for 'overseas' territories). Initially Macau used the Chinese dragon on its historical colours (gold on black), which, on May 8, 1935, were replaced by a golden dragon in blue.<br> | In the 20th century all Portuguese colonies were granted arms based on a similar design; the small shields of the arms of Portugal in the upper right, a local symbol in the upper left and the base with waves (for 'overseas' territories).
