In addition to St. George, the original proposal included additional heraldic elements found on the royal seal, such as the seamless robe of Jesus, but this was deemed excessively religious and was not incorporated into the final version.
The supporters are two golden lions, standing on a compartment of stylized grape vine ornament.
The compartment is embellished with a silver-purple motto ribbon (face is silver, back is purple).
On the silver field of the ribbon with black Mkhedruli letters is written the motto "ძალა ერთობაშია" ("Strength is in unity").
On the ribbon, in the beginning and the end of the inscription, are depicted purpure heraldic crosses.
