The
arms were designed, by
the armiger, to
represent himself and
his wife, Maria Madalina
Milian, using simplified
and differenced versions
of their respective
national arms; the ox’s
head representing his
Moldovian origins and
the two golden dolphins
(positioned differently
to the national arms)
representing the origins
of his wife in Dobruja
along with the sea.
The
Cross on the shield
represents their
Orthodox religion and
serves as a reminder of
their wedding vows made
before God. The cross is
a variant of the
patriarchal cross,
composed of a vertical
arm and two horizontal
ones, the upper arm,
shorter than the second,
and represents the
biblical acrostic INRI.
The
crest represents the
holding dear of all
Christian values and the
promotion of love and
respect.
The
armiger is a member of
The Knights of Saint
Thomas of Canterbury UK;
Knight
Grand Cross.
The
motto, Nihil Sine Deo,
translates to Nothing
without God.
