Master layer
Layer 3
Neutral fur, related to vair. Two contrasting tinctures. Blazoned “plumetty
tincture
and
tincture
.”
See also the plumetty field treatment, which is blazoned “

plumetty

Term is French, suggesting feathers. This example should probably be considered
poor style due to lack of internal detailing.
