The coat of arms of the Hawaiian Kingdom was officially adopted by the Legislative Assembly in 1845, during the reign of King Kamehameha III. The arms were designed by King the "Portcullis", from the College of Arms in London, commissioned by Timoteo Ha‘alilio, the King's private secretary and Royal Advisor, Reverend William Richards.
