Zagorje Cilli.svg|County of Zagorje<br><span style="font-size:88%; line-height: 1.3em;">Arms used by Sanneck family</span><!-- Originally the Sanneck/Celjski family actually used an arms identical to the ones associated with the Croatian kingdom and used in Gelre and Bergshammar armorials as such, however at later date (post 1410-1418) they started using leopard heads (lion heads en face) instead of lion heads to differentiate --> | |||
Zagorje Vitovec.svg|County of Zagorje<br><span style="font-size:88%; line-height: 1.3em;">Arms used by Vitovec family</span><!-- Arms awarded to Jan/John Vitovec in 1459. The shield is described as "diamond colored" which I am now fully convinced is wrongly (for reasons unknown to me) misinterpreted by Siebmacher and from whom a faulty and erroneous variant of golden heads on white variant stems....which obviously defies the basic rule of heraldry - the rule of tincture. The "diamond" is in fact synonymous in heraldry with black or sable, not white/silver which is in "jewel terms" described as pearl. Further proof lies in the fact the other shield of Vitovec (three six-pointed stars also granted at the same time) is described as ruby which is obviously associated with gules/red and furthermore, also Zagorje/Seger arms was in that period and few decades afterwards continually shown as lion heads on black/sable background --> | |||
