Motifs and registry wording
The record describes a silver bar formed by a wavy line across a blue field. Three silver fir trees stand side by side above it, with a silver waterwheel below.
Limits of the available symbolism sources
No explanation of the fir trees, waterwheel or wavy bar was found in the municipal primary sources checked. No meaning, such as a link to local industry or landscape, is therefore inferred here.
Heraldic elements
The heraldic elements are identified using HERO, a heraldry ontology published through Finland's Finto service. It provides structured terminology for describing coats of arms and their components. The list describes the structure of the arms, not the symbolic meaning of its elements.
