Arms of Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (United Kingdom) Hoodie: A Regal Design
This hoodie showcases a striking representation of the personal coat of arms of Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, later known as Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, a testament to her noble Scottish and English heritage.
Shield: A Quartered Legacy
The centerpiece of the design is the shield, meticulously quartered to display the rich tapestry of her ancestry. The first and fourth quarters feature the Bowes family arms, rendered in a crisp Argent (silver/white) field with a bold Azure (blue) chevron separating three majestic Sable (black) eagles. These eagles symbolize military prowess, protection, and the noble lineage of the Bowes family of County Durham.
The second and third quarters proudly bear the arms of the Lyon family, lords of Glamis in Scotland. Against a vibrant Gules (red) background, a striking Fess Chequy, a horizontal band meticulously chequered in Argent and Azure, represents the historic authority and Scottish roots of the Lyon family.
Crest: A Symbol of Courage
Above the shield, the crest takes center stage. A powerful Gules (red) demi-lion rampant, its claws and tongue rendered in Gold, emerges triumphantly from a regal ducal coronet. This emblem signifies courage, strength, and the nobility inherent in the Bowes-Lyon line.
A Royal Interpretation
This design embodies a remarkable fusion of heraldic artistry and regal significance, perfect for celebrating the legacy of a remarkable woman and her illustrious family.
