based on a description in Walter Kranz (ed.) The Principality of Liechtenstein: A Documentary Handbook, 5th edition, Vaduz, 1981:
"Blue, divided by a silver wavy band (representing the brook Esche)."

The arms are azure with a silver dove, with red feet, holding in its beak a red piece of wood. At the bottom appears a silver wave. The silver dove holding a red piece of wood appears in the arms of the covent of Pfaefers who owned the church in Eschen. The arms were adopted on 16 April, 1942.
