=A Heraldic Primer== 
http://heraldry.sca.org/primer/variants.html

==Diminutives== 
Diminutives are thinner, smaller versions of the ordinaries. Diminutives are '''not''' registered in SCA heraldry as '''solitary''' charges. They may be registered in multiples (per PicDic3).

The bar is a ''diminutive'' of the fess.

|}

==Gemels== 

Gemelling is a term which applies to two bars placed closely together. It is generally termed as a ''bar gemel.'' According to the PicDic3, gemmelling is allowed in the SCA, and other charges besides bars may be gemmelled.
