About stemma repubblica italiana

A heraldic emblem centered on a white five-pointed star with a thin red outline, placed over a light grey cogwheel (gear) with visible teeth. The star and gear are encircled by two crossed branches — an olive branch (left) with lighter green leaves and an oak branch (right) with darker, lobed leaves — tied at the base by a red scroll-style ribbon bearing white lettering.

The ribbon curves upward at both ends and contains the wordmark in all caps. The artwork uses flat colors with modest shading to suggest volume; composition is symmetrical and formal, typical of a national/state emblem.
