In Europe, coats of arms are symbols of glory and lineage. Of the one million coat of arms designs preserved since the Middle Ages, 15 percent include lion. Lion symbolizes strength, valor, power, and nobility. Lions have been an essential part of the UK’s royal coat of arms since William I established the Norman dynasty in 1066. It can be said that lion represents the British royal family. The paperweight in the image has a golden guardant lion like the one found on the crest of the UK royal coat of arms.
