Coat of arms of Charles II of Naples. The arms contain elements of those of three kingdoms: The Árpád stripes of Hungary on the left, the Semé of fleur-de-lys of the Angevin Kingdom of Naples in the center, and the Jerusalem cross. The Angevin arms are themselves differenced from that of France Ancien by a red label, indicating the dynasty as a cadet branch of the House of Capet.

Charles of Durazzo, also called Charles the Small (1345 – 24 February 1386), was King of Naples and the titular King of Jerusalem from 1382 to 1386 as Charles III, and King of Hungary from 1385 to 1386 as Charles II.
