Wappen Wollishofen Hoodie - Design Description
This hoodie showcases the distinguished coat of arms of Wollishofen, a district of Zürich, Switzerland. The design is a heraldic masterpiece, meticulously rendered to capture the essence of this historic emblem.
Shield Composition
The core of the design is the shield, the central element of the coat of arms. It is divided vertically, a technique known in heraldry as "per pale." This division creates two distinct fields, each contributing to the overall visual impact.
Color and Fields
The dexter (left) side of the shield is rendered in a vibrant gold (Or), offering a sense of prestige and value. The sinister (right) side is a bright silver (Argent), providing contrast and visual balance. These colors represent the district's history, heritage, and connection to the region's past.
Charge: The Barrulets
At the center of the shield, the design features two prominent horizontal bars, known as "barrulets," in a striking red (Gules). The placement of these bars is carefully considered, providing visual symmetry and balance. These red bars are the key to the historical link to the Counts of Kyburg, who played an important role in the region's history.
Symbolism and Heritage
The overall design reflects Wollishofen's deep-rooted connection to the Counts of Kyburg, a powerful family who influenced the region during the Middle Ages. The gold and silver background adds a sense of nobility and elegance, while the red barrulets clearly represent this historical bond, making this design a powerful and symbolic representation of Wollishofen's identity.
