I now recall other illustrations showing now-black areas should be argent due to the change of the paint over the years. I've never heard of churn piston before either?!

They really ought to be Argent (silver) as Sable (Black) will conflict with the Azure (blue) background of the shield.<br /><br />The Manesse codex was originally illustrated with gold and silver leaf. The silver has oxidized into black during the centuries, and this heraldic error - depicting the pistons as black instead of silver - has been repeated again and again. In fact, anything on Manesse Codex which is represented as black and seemingly violates the heraldic tincture rules, ought to be silver.Ironmistresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06980947020126620086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561181956134839079.post-6605584882602511142015-01-18T15:48:01.701-08:002015-01-18T15:48:01.701-08:00Another very fine figure Dean!
