These arms are based on the version of the arms granted in 1842.

The arms have a shield with a lion that is wearing a golden crown. The shield also has a lion supporter on the left and a brown bear supporter on the right.

The arms were originally granted by the Count Of Vlaanderen (Flanders in English) in 1304 and the lion is taken from his own coat of arms , although in a different colour and with a crown. This website has a fuller description of the arms.
