Oh!
I think here it is getting very difficult.
In german coats of arms (cities/counties) you can see a lot of standing lions and some similar black ones on yellow too.
But not exact such lion. For me it looks a little strange with this only 2 claws at its paws.
I will keep my eyes open.
The ring ist real nice looking.
Some background knowledge about it?

Flemish with artistic license? The lion is a different style than I have seen on Flemish wappen. Have seen some representations with out a red tongue and claws but they were represented in black. This one has no tongue.
So - probably something else.
