| has gloss | (noun) (heraldry) an ordinary consisting of a broad horizontal band across a shield fess, fesse |
| has gloss | eng: In heraldry, a fess or fesse (from Middle English fesse, from Old French, from Latin fascia, "band") is a charge on a coat of arms that takes the form of a band running horizontally across the centre of the shield. Writers disagree in how much of the shield's surface is to be covered by a fess or other ordinary, ranging from one-fifth to one-third. The Oxford Guide to Heraldry states that earlier writers including Leigh, Holme, and Guillim favour one-third, while later writers such as Edmondson favour one-fifth "on the grounds that a bend, pale, or chevron occupying one-third of the field makes the coat look clumsy and disagreeable." A fess is likely to be shown narrower if it is uncharged, that is, if it does not have other charges placed on it, and/or if it is to be shown with charges above and below it; and shown wider if charged. The fess or bar, termed fasce in French heraldry, should not be confused with fasces. |

A páros számú osztóvonal által létrejövő mezők közül a két szélsőnek egyforma színűnek kell lennie, különben nem (egy szokványos) mesteralak, hanem vágott pajzs jön létre. Háromszor, ötször stb. vágott pajzsról van szó akkor is, ha csak két borítás fordul elő, de az osztóvonalak száma páratlan. |
