Saint-Blaise

Impaled Gules Saint Blasius vested Argent adorned Or holding a crozier of this Last and a comb Sable then per fess Azure a cross throughout of the Third and Argent a mill wheel Sable.
Christopher Southworth

Wondering if this Saint Blaise is the same saint shown on the flags of Dubrovnik/Ragusa. Quite possibly, but there the attribute is the city itself instead of the comb.
Željko Heimer, 4 June 2000

It is indeed the same man, Saint Blaise is French for Saint Blasius.
