Great coat of arms of Belgium - Pint Glass 16oz

The Great Coat of Arms of Belgium is the national heraldic emblem of the country. It features a shield divided into four quarters, representing the historical provinces of Belgium: Flanders, Hainaut, Brabant, and Luxembourg. In the center is the golden arm and hand holding an abbey key, symbolizing the spiritual authority of the Prince-Bishopric of Liège. The emblem is topped by a royal crown and surrounded by a chain of the Order of the Golden Fleece. This coat of arms was officially adopted in 1977 as a result of the merger of the coats of arms used by the Belgian federal government and the King of the Belgians. The Great Coat of Arms serves as a symbol of national unity, heritage, and identity for the people of Belgium.
