====June 1995 - gold fleurs on azure: ====
Henri Michel du Bois. Device. Per pale azure and sable, two chevronels inverted between a sun and two fleurs-de-lys Or. Though this does, in fact, have a gold fleur-de-lys on the azure portion of the field, the fleur is clearly part of a charge group, and in no way duplicates the augmentations normally associated with French royalty (a chief of France, a bordure of France, etc.). Further, a single gold fleur-de-lys on a blue field does not appear to violate the restriction actually in place. "The period examples are so numerous that I feel I must uphold the Society's ban on gold fleurs-de-lys on blue backgrounds --- and make it explicit. Neither France Ancient (Azure semy-de-lys Or) nor France Modern (Azure, three fleurs-de-lys Or) may be used in SCA heraldry, either as the field (or part thereof) or on a charge. To do so constitutes a claim to connection to French royalty, prohibited under Rule XI.1." (Bruce Draconarius of Mistholme, LoAR July 1992, pg. 23) It is thus the use of three or more fleurs-de-lys Or on azure which is restricted; not a single gold fleur on a blue field. [[5]]

====September 1989 - orle fleury: ====
Mirielda Grey. Device. Gules, on a rose argent, barbed vert, within an orle flory Or, a heart gules. The use of the orle fleury here, particularly given the Or and gules tinctures used, is far too close to the reserved tressure of Scotland. Taken with the white rose motif, there is a distinct problem. http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/1989/09/lar.html
