Slipped and leaved

The terms slipped and leaved, which are applied here to the apples, can be found in [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 321 and figure 138] when describing the coat of arms of the «Kingdom of Granada in Spain», which states «Argent, a pomegranate proper, showing its seeds Gules, supported, slipped, and leaved with two leaves Vert».

slipped and leaved, being in the blazon of Granada, are also in the blazon of the coat of arms of Spain and its kings. We read this in [Avilés, J.; 1780b; page 321 and figure 138] where he writes «...Quarterly with a point Argent, a pomegranate proper, showing its seeds Gules, stemmed, and leaved with two leaves Vert, which is of Granada».

In Spanish heraldry, there are three terms for supporters: «sostenes» for objects or plants, «tenantes» for human figures, and «soportes» for animal forms. The following applies to sostenes, tenantes, and soportes. Unlike other heraldic traditions such as English heraldry, in Spanish heraldry there are no rules for the use of supporters; their use is at the armiger's discretion, without specific restrictions. Supporters are not reserved only for nobility; their use is free for all.

In the words of [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 173] «there is no rule that determines the use of tenantes, soportes, and sostenes».
