Heraldry in Hurmu has a long history.
Armigers
Under Hurmu law and tradition, armigerous people and institutions are:
- The Order of the Holy Lakes (the national government uses the coat of arms of the Order)
- States and districts of Hurmu
- Condominiums, the sovereignty of which are shared with Hurmu
- Municipalities of Hurmu
Traditions
Hurmu heraldry traditions have been influenced by Storish and New Britannic rules. While the following are not rules per se, they are considered traditions, and often adhered to:
- Escutcheons are inherited in the male line
- People descended from the same ancestor in the male line may use the same escutcheon, but will usually differentiate in different ways (marks of cadence, defacement, different crests, etc)
- Women often carry lozenges (but not at all always)
- Married women often impale their arms with their husband's (this occurs also in same-sex marriages, also for men)
With many members of the Order of the Holy Lakes stemming from other countries with other heraldic traditions, these traditions are also respected where applicable.
