Meaning:
The candle is representing the numerous candle factories in the commune. It is probably also an attribute of Our Lady of the Light, the local patron saint. The bunch of grapes is representing the local viticulture. The amphora is representing the local olive oil factories. The base wavy is symbolizing the lagoons drying out today and are a canting element. The green colour of the shield is representing agriculture as economic base of the commune during many centuries.
