Corona Muralis of Hong Kong
壁形金冠
The Corona Muralis of Hong Kong is a ceremonial gilt finial at the top of the Arbitration Committee's flagpole. It was designed by former arbitrator H.L. Ho and was made in Hong Kong. Its design integrated several elements from the Coat of arms of Hong Kong and the Armorial Bearings of the Urban Council of Hong Kong.
The shape of corona muralis acknowledges the battle of Hong Kong in 1941. The golden harvest surmounting it is an indication of the city's geographical and cultural context. At bottom, a rope in white and blue symbolises Hong Kong as a coastal city. At top, the pearl held by a demi lion Or indicates the glory and spirit of the city, through recalling a romanticised phrase - "Pearl of the Orient".
