The coat of arms of Svetvincenat is azure a tower with slanted
base and embattelments argent. It reporesent the casle of Grimani
that is the base of the town, built in 13th century and rebuilt
to its present shape in 1589, when the same coat of arms carved
above the fort entrance may have been made already. The flag is
light blue with the coat of arms bordered with white off- set
towards the canton. The distance from to to the coat of
arms is one units, from bottom and from hoist being two units.
This seems to be regular thing for a number of flags in Istria
that are in style different from the artwork of Heraldika from
Rijeka. In that batch of flag I have located name of the
designer's company only in one case (MOD d.d. Pula), but this may
be indication that the flag are designed by one and the same
person.
