D'azur à la croix d'argent, à la licorne saillante d'or brochante. | |||
===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
The arms were adopted in 1928. | |||
They based on the arms of the Mestral de Cuarnens, former lords of the locality. The commune replaced the wheels which accompanied the cross by a unicorn, coming from an old village sign. This can also be seen as a canting element, the village name was pronounced as Cornens, which resemble licorne. | |||
