No arms

Sarthe is one of the few with stripes instead of a plain field. The three bands are white, green and white, and the logo is written on the central green stripe.
Almost all logos sit on a plain field. Here the drawing has to fit inside a green stripe, which forces the text to be smaller.
The central green stripe is the thinnest of the three. The white at the ends acts as a frame, and the name of the department reads only on the green.
