Unione Montana dei Comuni dell'Appennino Reggiano - Stemma Hoodie Design
Embrace the heritage and beauty of the Appennino Reggiano with this striking hoodie design, showcasing the official coat of arms of the Unione Montana dei Comuni dell'Appennino Reggiano, an Italian union of municipalities.
Central Shield Design
The centerpiece of this design is the shield, rendered primarily in silver (argent). At the heart of the shield is a silver roundel, edged in black, upon which a vibrant six-petaled green flower (also known as the "Alpine sun" or "fleur of life") is prominently displayed. The flower is further detailed with a matching green central button, echoing the fresh beauty and enduring hope associated with the region.
Border and Municipal Symbols
Encircling the central design is a green border, symbolic of the mountainous, forested landscape of the Appennino Reggiano. This border is charged with seven silver roundels, representing the seven municipalities that make up the Unione. These roundels are strategically placed with three on each side and one at the base of the shield, creating a balanced and visually appealing composition.
Crown and Ornamental Embellishments
Above the shield, an ancient-style crown with seven visible golden points sits, signifying the civic status of the union. Below the shield, two elegant branches – one of laurel and one of oak – are crossed, representing honor, strength, and longevity. The branches are tied together with a ribbon in the Italian tricolor (green, white, and red), adding a patriotic touch to the overall design.
Symbolism
This design is rich with symbolism: The silver field and central disc with the six-petaled flower celebrate regional craft, architecture and seasonal renewal. The seven silver roundels on the border denote the seven municipalities, and the green hues reflect the region’s natural environment. The combination of the crown, shield and branches are meant to commemorate the Appenino Reggiano’s natural heritage and civic pride.
