The arms show a farmer holding a sieve and sieving grains. The sieve, Triftern, is a canting element. The composition never changed, but the size, shape and colours of the man and the sieve have varied widely during the centuries. The man has even been shown naked, holding a kind of large basket during the 19<sup>th</sup> century. The above image has been used since the late 19<sup>th</sup> century and is based on the original diploma from 1486.
