A client is interested in a device incorporating an inescutcheon with
"Gyronny Or and gules a bordure sable". The Glossary says that a
"Multiply charged single inescutcheon" is reserved for augmentations or
arms of pretense. But this inescutcheon isn't multiply charged; it has
a single charge, the bordure, and a divided field. May it therefore be
used without implying an augmentation? If so, is it a colour for
purposes of contrast?
