The Poltoratsky family was a Russian noble family, descended from the Cossack Mark Fedorovich Poltoratsky (1729–1795), who during the reign of Catherine the Great, was in charge of the Court Singing Chapel.

In the lower part in the silver field there is a harp with stretched blue strings.

The shield is crowned with an ordinary noble helmet, decorated with a noble torse, on the surface of which a silver lion extending to half is visible, holding a bunchuk with a blue rim and a black shaft in its front paws.
