Origin/meaning

During colonial times the city used the arms below.

Colonial arms

The arms were officially adopted on November 7, 1927 and granted on October 14, 1930.

Origin/meaning

Gedeeld : I. in azuur een padi-aar van goud ; II. in zilver een tak van een theeplant van natuur lijke kleur. Het schild gedekt met een gouden kroon van drie bladeren en twee paarlen. Schildhouders : twee leeuwen van goud, getongd en genageld van keel.

The initial arms showed a kind or a mural crown, which was not acceptable by the Dutch Court of Arms. The city then adopted the common crown for all cities.

The arms show a divided shield with the two main crops in the area, rice and tea.
