The arms show a red wedding ring with a diamond and eight roses, on white background. The ring is the symbol of the everlasting union between Montecchio and the family d'Este (dukes in Modena, Reggio Emilia and Ferrara). Inside the ring there are two letters, "L.M.", short for "Leonellus Marchio" (i.e. marquis Leonello): Leonello d'Este gave to Montecchio permission to use this coat of arms in 1442. | The arms show a red wedding ring with a diamond and eight roses, on white background.
