Blazon: På blå grunn tre sølv ambolter, 1-1-1. In English: Azure three anvils
argent in pale.
Approved by the government resolution of 4. juli 1991 after a drawing by Trond
Andersson. The anvils symbolise the ironwork i.e. smith for which the region was
famous. Prior to the adoption of the current arms, a different one was used, as
shown at
http://ngw.nl/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Hol That one is also shown
in [c2j87] giving Arnstein Arneberg as the
designer in 1957, afterwards redrawn by Anders R. Andersen. It depicted a white
upraised horse in blue shield with three wavy diagonal lines and a "starry"
formation, and with a black chief.
