About FBI SHIELD

A circular, heraldic-style seal with a scalloped gold sunburst outer edge and two concentric blue rings. The outer blue ring contains uppercase text around the top and bottom; the inner blue field encloses a ring of gold stars surrounding a central shield. The shield has three vertical red-and-white stripes, a gold chief bearing a small black scales-of-justice symbol, and is flanked by a pair of green laurel branches. Beneath the shield is a white ribbon bearing three words in black uppercase.

The overall layout is symmetrical and formal — flat, saturated colors (deep blue, gold, red, green, white) with clear outlines. The seal reads as an official government emblem combining patriotic (shield and stripes), judicial (scales), and honorific (laurel wreath, stars, motto ribbon) elements.
