Frimbriated Cross
| View Cart ⇗ | Info
“The Fimbriated Cross is a cross having a border of another tincture, generally for the purpose of allowing it, if it be of metal, to be placed upon a field of another metal; the fimbration, or intervening border, being of a color to prevent the violation of the rule that ‘metal cannot be placed upon metal, or color upon color.’"—Aveling, 1891
