Heraldry in the Wild!


Well, "in the wild" for some version of a pretty tame, really, domesticated "wild."

Anyway, I was recently reminded that I had run across this particular piece of heraldry at an antique show in Fort Worth, Texas. Not exactly the location, or the venue, where you might expect to find a European coat of arms. Just sayin'.

But I thought it was a pretty neat item, that someone had obviously seen and "upscaled" by turning a simple, armorially-decorated tin into a slightly more complex, armorially-decorated table lamp.

See what you think. How cool is this find of the arms of Hungary, complete with angel supporters?
