LLOSSES
Region : Catalonia

Official blazon
Escut caironat: de sinople, 2 llosses d'or, passades en sautor i amb les fulles a dalt. L'escut acoblat d'un bàcul d'abat d'or posat en pal i timbrat d'una corona de baró.
Origin/meaning
Canting arms: they show two "llosses" (Catalan for "spoons"). Les Llosses has been the centre of the barony of La Guàrdia de Ripoll (11th century), and this explains the baron's crown at the top of the arms. The crosier stands for the monastery of Ripoll, that bought the barony in 1363.
