The emblem is placed upon a black square. An eight-pointed star (as the Star of an Order of Knighthood) in gold, a central disc coloured as a flag, black (dexter - or left) white (centre) & red (sinister - or right). Crossed whips, a Maltese cross, a disc with 3 tridents in the North East & West positions, the handle of the top trident is seen below in the South position all in gold. There is also a ribbon attached to this emblem in the base with a motto, above the trident at the top is what looks like a kris (keris) also in gold. Below this emblem is another gold ribbon with a motto. Below all in gold capital letters is "PURI AGUNG DENPASIR" (Kings Palace of Den Pasir: Note Den Pasir is the English way of writing it, the other is local).

The colours are white (top), black (dexter) & red (sinister). In the centre drawn in gold is a face, crossed whips, a border & a gold kind of cross at the top. The shield has a white border, all within a white square. The words below are not known.
