Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria, King of Hungary issued this patent of arms in Vienna on 23 January 1911, by which he conferred Hungarian nobility and a coat of arms upon Albin Fröhlich, landholder of Sarmaság (now Șărmășag, Romania), his wife Paula Móricz, and their children Albin, Péter, Domokos, and Henriette, wife of Baron Hartwig von Wersebe. The name of Albin Fröhlich is commemorated in Budapest by the residential building located at 19 József körút, which he commissioned and had constructed in 1895–1896. The coat of arms is composed in full accordance with the rules of heraldry. The shield is divided per fess azure and argent, charged with a fess or; in chief, between two silver crescents facing one another by their horns, floats a golden rose; in base, upon a green terrace, stand two red towers with open gates, triple-gabled roofs, and two windows each. Upon the crowned barred helm are three silver ostrich feathers. The mantling is azure and gold on the dexter side, and gules and silver on the sinister. This valuable source was donated by the Hungarian Heritage Archives Foundation to the Hungarian National Archives, where it was deposited in the collection of patents of arms (reference: HU-MNL-OL-R 64-1.-1120).
