Where did coat of arms and royal crests originate?
Back in medieval times, crests of royal families began to appear, and soon throughout England and Europe, these emblems appeared to represent their names and royal lines.
They were considered spoils of war as art were taken when soldiers won battles on the fields, and collected valuable and beautiful works of art.

This addition of art also changed the symbolism of their emblems themselves.
For example, the royal crest of England began as a rampant lion or red lion used by King William I in 1189.
However, when King Edward claimed the French throne in the 14th century, he added the yellow fleur de lis on a blue field to the royal crest of England.
The Queen Mary in the 16th century added her emblem to the crest until it was revered by Queen Elizabeth I in the late 16th century.

From the medieval times, they were used to represent family lines, then in the 17th and 18th century in Europe, elaborate coats of arms were produced for their own sake, to decorate castles and palaces of royal families.
These coats of arms used emblems from families as well as their own choices of motifs from nature, armory, as well as animal symbols.
Royal crests and coat of arms have been used:
1. In castles and subsequently palaces, to decorate walls of royal residences throughout history
2. In official offices as works of art
3. In private residences as home decor
The use of symbolism is prominent, and in the example above, the Royal Crest, thus symbolism includes shields and armor, horses and unicorns, as well as words inscribed onto scrolls, to represent their mottos and virtues.
