    The

    dates from 1834 and was designed by the English artist Charles Wood Taylor
    (1792–1856). It is made up by a figurative background divided in two equal parts. A five pointed star is in the center of the shield. This background is supported in one side by a
    condor
    , the most significant bird of prey of the Andes
    , and in the other, by a Huemul,
    a mammal endemic to Chile. Both animals wear gold Naval Crowns. which
    symbolize  The heroic deeds of the
    C
    hilean Navy
    in the Pacific Ocean.
