===Coat of arms===
The [[coat of arms]] was approved on 18 May 1985, but it was never approved by a royal decree because it did not meet the strict rules for coats of arms at that time. The [[blazon]] is ''"[[Azure (heraldry)|Azure]], a girl playing a trumpet [[Or (heraldry)|Or]]"''. This means the arms have a blue [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) and the [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] is a girl playing a trumpet. The charge has a [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]] of [[Or (heraldry)|Or]] which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The design is based on the local [[Prillar-Guri]] [[legend]]. In 1612, a [[Military history of Scotland|Scottish army]] marched through the area on its way to [[Sweden]]. They were stopped by the local farmers at the [[Battle of Kringen]]. The legend tells that the farmers were warned for the Scots by a local girl with a [[trumpet]]. The arms were designed by Jarle Skuseth. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civic heraldry of Norway - Norske Kommunevåpen |url=https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Sel |access-date=2023-04-17 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Sel kommune, våpen |url=https://foto.digitalarkivet.no/fotoweb/archives/5003-Kommunev%C3%A5pen/Kart%20og%20tegninger%20og%20segl/Sel%20fra%20SNL.JPG.info#c=%2Ffotoweb%2Farchives%2F5003-Kommunev%25C3%25A5pen%2F%3Fq%3Dsel |access-date=2023-04-17 |website=Digitalarkivet}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Kommunevåpen profil |url=https://www.sel.kommune.no/om-sel/kommunevapen-profil/ |access-date=2023-04-17 |website=Sel kommune |language=no}}</ref>
