Coat of Arms of Sir Thomas Raymond Dunne (United Kingdom) T-Shirt: Design Description
This t-shirt showcases the meticulously crafted coat of arms of Sir Thomas Raymond Dunne, a striking emblem steeped in history and personal significance.
Shield Design
The shield's foundation is a stark black (sable) field, dramatically bisected at the top by a gold (or) zig-zag pattern, also known as a "chief indented." This distinctive pattern sets the stage for the primary imagery.
Emerging from the black field is a proud, golden (or) wolf, posed "rampant" – standing on its hind legs. This majestic wolf holds aloft a golden bottle or flask, a direct reference to the Walker family, renowned for their whisky production, representing Sir Thomas's maternal heritage.
Adorning the gold chief are two pears, a symbolic nod to the agricultural heritage of Herefordshire and Worcestershire, counties associated with Sir Thomas's service as Lord Lieutenant.
Crest & Banner
Above the shield, the crest features a single rose, its stalk rendered in black, specifically representing "Lady Dunne." The overall composition is set against a black banner or background, reflecting the family tradition, with "Dunne" said to mean "swarthy." This choice adds depth and contextual meaning to the design.
Historical & Symbolic Significance
The design is inspired by the historical motifs of the Welsh family "Dwnn," and later families with the surnames Donne / Dunne. This design was chosen as the basis when Sir Thomas Dunne sought a grant of arms.
The pears reference the fruit grown in regions in which Sir Thomas served, with the bottle held by the wolf honoring his maternal lineage (the Walker whisky family).
