A simple search brought up these results:

Badge for the town of Teinbridge, England: On a Sun in splendour Or over Water barry wavy of four in base Azure and Argent a representation of a Devon Clapperbridge as in the Arms.

Arms of the University of British Columbia (Canada): Argent, three bars wavy azure, issuant from the base a demi-sun in splendour proper; on a chief azure an open book.

 

These arms while composed of the same elements in the blazon about which you have asked, they are not arranged in the same manner. If you were going to continue your reseach, I recommend that you focus on arms granted in the 19th and 20th centuries as this arrangement of the charges is very modern in heraldic terms.

Thanks,

I was aware of the first one, but not the second.

How should the orientation of the arrowheads be blazoned below?

A couple of methods could be used:

1. Three arrowheads one and two, the dexter bendwise and the sinister bendwise sinister.

 

2. Two arrowheads in chevron reversed below another palewise, (points all outward).

Thanks Sandy,

I think I will go with the first one.

 

BTW, I love your renderings and your innovations in design as well.

What’s the proper blazon for the ordering of these charges?  The demi-sun is behind the mound on which the book is sitting.
