The Coat of Arms of the Republic of Cabo Verde reflects a radial composition showcasing the following elements, from the center to the periphery:
- An equilateral blue triangle with a white flame at its center;
- A circumference enclosing the words 'REPUBLIC OF CABO VERDE', starting from the left corner and extending to the right corner of the triangle;
- Three blue line segments parallel to the base of the triangle, bounded by the first circumference;
- A second circumference;
- A yellow plumb bob aligned with the vertex of the equilateral triangle, overlaid on the two circumferences at its upper part;
- Three yellow links occupying the base of the composition, followed by two green palms and ten yellow five-pointed stars symmetrically arranged in two groups of five.
