bendwise axes argent in pale.
Approved by the royal resolution of 24 April 1992. A document from the municipal
assembly minutes at
http://www.fyresdal.kommune.no/~/media/Fyresdal/Dokument/Fakta_kommune/Kommunev%C3%A5pen_vedtak.ashx
reveal that the final design was made by Halvor Holtskog Jr.
It represent the land and woods as the main background of the municipal
industry, it is an active and powerful design and uses old axe forms as links
with the past.
The document on coat of arms and flag usage regulations at
http://www.fyresdal.kommune.no/~/media/Fyresdal/Dokument/Fellestenesta/Kommunevapen_reglar.ashx
claims that the flag should be quadratic in shape. It also allows the use of
wimpel and banner form for decorative usage.
