[edit] Blazon

The translation of the blazon (from Finnish?) does not mention the red background. Without this the blazon is incomplete. A proper blazon would be: Gules, above two duelling arms, the dexter gauntleted holding a sword and the sinister mailed a scimitar argent hafted or, a crown of the same, in chief a ducal coronet of the same, jeweled on the rim; for a crest a ducal coronet of the same and jeweled on the rim.
