Blazon: På raud grunn tre gull feler, 2-1. In English: Gules three fiddles
or.
Approved by the royal resolution of 19 February 1988 after a drawing by Halvor
Holtskog Jr. [c2j88] and
http://www.bo.kommune.no/politikk-og-organisasjon/lokalpolitikk/kommunevapen-og-ordforarkjede/
The design shows a hardingfela (Hardanger fiddle) as we have already seen at
Granvin a few days ago. Bø in Telemark (as opposed from Bø in Nordland, another
municipality) is know as the Norwegian Cremona - with strong fiddle building
tradition.
