Isigqoko sezandla zasePeru sakhiwe yi-congressmen amabili, uJosé Gregorio Paredes noFrancisco Javier Cortés, futhi bavunyelwa ngokusemthethweni ngo-1825. Kwashintshwa kancane ngo-1950, kodwa kuye kwahlala kungashintshi kusukela ngaleso sikhathi.
Kunezinguquko ezine ezihlukene zezingubo zePeruvia: i- Escudo de Armas (ingubo yezingalo), i- Escudo Nacional (isihlangu sikazwelonke), i- Gran Sello del Estado (uphawu lwesizwe) kanye ne- Escudo de la Marina de Guerra (isihlangu samabutho ).
Zonke izinhlobo, noma kunjalo, zihlanganyela escutcheon noma isihlangu esifanayo.
Ngokwemigomo yobuchwepheshe, i-escutcheon ihlukaniswe ngephutha futhi ihlukaniswe ngokwehlukana. NgesiNgisi esilula, umugqa olinganiselwe uhlukanisa isihlangu sibe ngamashumi ama-halves, enombeni oqondile ohlukanisa ingxenye engenhla ibe yizigaba ezimbili.
Kunezici ezintathu kulesi sihlangu. Kukhona i- vicuña , isilwane sesizwe sasePeru, esigabeni esiphansi kwesokunxele. Isigaba sokunene esiphakeme sibonisa isihlahla se-cinchona, esivela kuso i-quinine (i-alkaloid emhlophe ekhanda eligcwele izakhi zokulwa ne-malaria, futhi isetshenziselwa ukunambitheka kwamanzi we-tonic). Ingxenye ephansi ibonisa i-cornucopia, uphondo lwezinala ezichichima ngemali yesinhlamvu.
Ngokubambisana, izakhi ezintathu ezembatho yasePeruvia zimelela imifino, imfuyo kanye nemithombo yamaminerali yesizwe.
