| This funerary lozenge, painted by a member of the Scottish Heraldry Society has the Scottish Version of the Royal Arms impaled by those of the family of Bowes-Lyon, but the supporters do not change. | The version Royal Arms used depended on whether they were displayed inside or outside Scotland, but the supporters do not. The lion per fesse or and gules is taken from her paternal Bowes-Lyon arms, where it is also used as the sinister supporter Also, the Queen Mother preferred to continue using the "Tudor" Crown in her arms |
Arms The Royal arms are impaled by: Quarterly:
- 1st and 4th argent, a lion rampant Azure, armed and langued gules, within a double tressure flory-counter-flory of the second (for LYON);

The shield is surrounded by the Garter (or, in Scotland, by the Collar of the Thistle). The Queen Mother became an Lady of those orders in 1937.
