On the commune's coat of arms, adopted in 2004, the gules and pots are a reminder that Mortroux was once a well-known Poitiers village. The ermine chief evokes the coat of arms of the Limousin region.
The village has kept the memory of its artists alive, with the presence of fine pottery used as finials adorning several of its roofs
