CHE Root COA (Switzerland) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the official Coat of Arms (COA) of Root, a municipality within the Canton of Lucerne, Switzerland (CHE).
Visual Elements
The design prominently features the Root COA, which is divided vertically, "per pale," into two distinct halves.
On the left side, set against a vibrant red (Gules) background, are the silver (Argent) outlines of a boat hook and an oar. These are arranged in a dynamic manner to suggest movement.
The right side presents a pattern of alternating horizontal stripes, known heraldically as "barry." The stripes are a sequence of gold (Or) and black (Sable).
Symbolism and Meaning
The boat hook and oar are visual references to Root's close relationship with the Reuss River and are strongly associated with historical activities such as boating or fishing, reflecting the municipality's historical context.
The gold and black stripes represent a heraldic pattern, sometimes found in Swiss municipal arms. It may reflect local historical influences and alliances.
