Zadora (Płomień, Płomienie, Płomieńczyk) is a Polish coat of arms which was used by many szlachta families in the former territories of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
History
The earliest mentions of the coat of arms date back to the late 14th century. It was used in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania after the Union of Horodło.[2]
Blazon
Within a blue field is the singular head of a silver lion facing left, with flames issued from its mouth. There is a silver helm, upon which a blue torse sits with blue and white mantling originating from it. Resting on the torse is a golden crown, crested with the similar head of the silver lion, with flames also issuing from its mouth.
