An Impressive large Spanish Toledo's Coat of arms hand carved double eagle representing blason of the King Charles I of Spain. Measuring 45 inches tall and 37 inches wide wing span. A stunning flawless carved wall hanging with two eagles holding a Ram or lamb in the lower center. Toledo's arms are a grant of Emperor Charles V (King Charles I of Spain) and include the double-headed eagle bearing a escutcheon with Castile and Leon quartered and Granada in point (a pomegranate as in the current Spanish Arms) surrounded by the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece, the eagle [almost] holding in its talons the pillars of Hercules and the Imperial crown. I am attaching an image of the more or less official version taken from the Diputación de Toledo website (Provincial Council), and a not so correct version (lacks the pillars, the crown does not look very much like an imperial one) taken from José María Valladolid's website. The eagle is generally depicted sable ie. black. Possibly the flag you saw either had a black eagle heavily 'lined' in gold, or it was a wrong variation.

Old but Very good condition for the age, It has some old repairs to the very bottom leaf,it is solid and heavy , it has been re stained , The top small cross is removable for transportation reasons.
