Basic chevron

Delineation, ratios and angles of a basic chevron.

Frente a los que denomino cabrio clásico y cabrio abierto, este se traza por el simple cruce de una banda y una barra.

Produce un desigual reparto de los espacios vacíos del campo, amplio por encima, escaso por debajo. Dependiendo del diseño que se haya que realizar, esto puede ser una ventaja o un inconveniente.

Por ejemplo, en este caso del escudo de Juan de Ladbrooke, no hay cargas ni figuras para las que habilitar espacio, sólo es un cabrio de armiños, por lo que esta forma de diseño puede ser adecuada y, más aún, si se desea un clara y patente representación del azur.

Argent, on a chevron Gules three feathers Argent, between three swords erect Gules. Motto: «Ab Initio Goostrey».

Escudo de plata, un cabrio de gules cargado de tres plumas de plata, acompañado de tres espadas alzadas de gules, 2 y 1. Mote: «Ab Initio Goostrey».

Coat of arms interpreted by me as follows: with a rounded base; the motto and field illuminated in Argent; the chevron, with a wide angle in the Cheshire style, is illuminated in Gules and outlined in Sable; the swords and feathers illuminated in Gules and Argent respectively and all outlined in Sable; and the whole has a raised-stroke texture.

I have interpreted the coats of arms of the County of Cheshire produced by Martin Goldstraw with my own style, but I wished to preserve part of his in 2 of his most characteristic elements:

  • his beautiful garbs ~ gavillas de trigo, which characterise the heraldry of the region and are present in the arms of this county, and
  • his distinctive chevron, with a wider angle than the considered standard, almost necessary to leave space for the charges in many of the Cheshire shields.

Among the possible options of motto, device, mote and battle cry I have decided to classify «Ab Initio Goostrey» as a mote because it is not easy to understand without prior explanation. Martin Goldstraw's own biography provides this explanation when he states that his «interest in the heraldry of the County of Cheshire began when it became apparent that the origins of the surname Goldstraw lie in the surname of Goostrey». Goostrey is a small village in the county of Cheshire, of about 2,000 inhabitants, that was already a human settlement in the first millennium BC.

My heraldic Pixiv wall is Dr.A.Salmeron @antoniosheraldry and pixiv.me/antoniosheraldry.

Pixiv is a Japanese online community for artists. I post in Pixiv 2 or 3 coats of arms per week. They use a strict form to post with many mandatory input fields. This week, they have added a new mandatory field «AI-generated work: Yes / No», AI ~ Artificial Intelligence. In the image, I have highlighted this new field in red.

My animation of the coat of arms of Juan Lanzagorta reached position 33 in Pixiv’s daily Ugoira animation ranking. I am very happy about this, as it is not easy to achieve.

Reddit

Subredit in castilian Reddit/r/blasones.

When one delves into heraldry, one discovers a conceptual universe: a discipline with its own system of rules and a specific language, blazon, developed in the world’s principal languages; a historical depth of 900 years and, at present, the greatest heraldic flourishing in history, with hundreds of thousands of armigers spread across all continents.

Subredit Reddit/r/blasones, se puede publicar.

On Reddit, the «subreddit» reddit.com/r/heraldry with more than 95,000 members is an example of this flourishing. As this group operates in English, I therefore decided to create, on Reddit, the «subreddit» reddit.com/r/blasones in order to publish heraldry in Castilian.
