The coat of arms consists of six parts representing each province. Navarre and Lower Navarre have the same coat of arms, that of the Kingdom of Navarre, because these two provinces were united until the beginning of the 16th century. height 21 cm width 21 cm Base diameter 9 cm Carefully shipped with track and trace.
