The shield is inspired by that of the Basque province of Vizcaya, Spain.
All this is framed in a bronze-brown frame. At the top of the shield appears the royal crown in a golden yellow color with blue stones in its vertical arches and diamond-shaped stones at its base, these are embedded and alternate in red and blue, inside the crown there is a bright red lining. Finally, at the top is the crown that represents the king of Spain.
