Princess Estelle’s arms and monogram published

On the occasion of her christening today, the Swedish royal court has published the arms and the monogram of Princess Estelle. Both have been designed by Vladimir A. Sagerlund and approved by King Carl Gustaf.
The monogram is, obviously, an E surmounted by a princely crown, while the arms are the same as those of Crown Princess Victoria, with two exceptions: the third quarter shows the arms of Ostrogothia, of which province Princess Estelle is Duchess, rather than those of Westrogothia, which has the Crown Princess as its Duchess, and Princess Estelle has a princely crown rather than the crown princely crown which forms part of her mother’s arm.
