Blazon

Official blazon in Finnish: "Mustassa kentässä palkeittain viritetty käsijousi; kaikki kultaa, paitsi jousen jänne sekä nuolen kärki ja sulitettu pyrstö hopeaa. Kruunu: kreivikunnan kruunu."

Official blazon in Swedish: "I svart fält en balkvis ställd pil på en spänd båge, allt av guld, utom bågsträngen, pilspetsen och fjädrarna, som är av silver. Skölden krönes med grevskapets krona."

Blazoned in English: "Sable, a hand bow in bend and arrow aimed toward dexter chief, or; bow string, arrowhead and feathered tail, argent. The shield's crown is an count's crown."

English blazon by Lewis A. Nowitz, 13 March 2002
