COAT OF ARMS

The coat of arms of Saint Lucia was designed by Sydney Bagshaw in 1967. It is made of a blue shield with a stool, two roses and two fleur de lis.

The shield is supported by two Saint Lucian parrots. Beneath the shield is the national motto.

  • The symbolism of the elements are:
  • Tudor rose – England
  • Fleur de lis – France
  • Stool – Africa
  • Torch – Beacon to light the path
  • Saint Lucia parrot – Amazona versicolor, the national bird
  • Motto: “The land, the people, the light”
