The Mandalorian Crest stands for a code of honor. The main components of the crest are the wheat symbol, tear drop and what looks like a cursive “F” symbol. Worn by Boba Fett in Star Wars, the crest represented the Fett clan and stands for a code of honor set by the Madalorians. Take a look at what each individual aspect of the crest represents below:
Wheat
The name Fett is said to have come from the Mando’a word vhett meaning farmer and is thus where the wheat symbol originated. The symbol itself stands for a warrior’s ability to live off the land and their prosperity and tenacity.
Crescents
Each crescent shape on the blade of wheat represents the Mandalorian territories. The largest at the base of the stalk, represents Mandalore (where the others have sprouted from). The following four represent the other Mandalorian territories including: Gargan, Ordo, Shogun and Concord Dawn.
Drop
The red drop in the top right is a symbol of the warrior’s willingness to lose every drop of their blood to fulfill their mission.
Cursive “F” symbol
What looks like a cursive F is the Mandalorian letter Roh that stands for fidelity and is demonstrated by loyalty to the cause.
Spear
The spear that extends outside of the crest represents the Supercommando code (Mandalorian soldier’s code) and how it is not bound by time or territory and reaches beyond Mandalore in both the past and future.
The Mandalorian Crest signifies a warrior’s simple beginnings, their prosperity, tenacity, fidelity and willingness to die fighting.
