May 2013 LoAR - shapes of heraldic display:[edit | edit source]

Talitha of Avalon. Badge. (Fieldless) A heart argent charged with three musical notes two and one sable. This badge is returned for using a charged heart as a fieldless badge. As a heart is considered a medium for heraldic display, this must be considered the same as Argent, three musical notes sable. The submitter should be made aware that at the current time that armory appears to be clear of conflict. If the heart is important to the submitter, giving the design a field would also resolve the issue. http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2013/05/13-05lar.html#53
