WHAT DOES FLAUNCH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Flaunch

In heraldry, flaunches or flanches or flanks are among the ordinaries or subordinaries, consisting of two arcs of circles protruding into the field from the sides of the shield. The flaunch is never borne singly. Plain flaunches are seen in the coats of Hulbert Paul Lindahl Silver and Gillian Patricia Birtwhistle. They may be of different tinctures, as in the coat of the Free State Women’s Agricultural Union where they are orange/tenny and azure. Flaunches may touch each other, as in the coat of Bradley Hook. Like any ordinary, they may ▪ be charged with other things, as in the English coats of Harlow District Council and Forest of Dean District Council. ▪ have colourings other than plain ones, as in the English coat of Hoylake Urban District Council and the Canadian one of the Central Saanich Police Service. ▪ have ornamented edges, as in the Welsh coat of Maesteg Town Council. A very rare variation is square flaunches, as in the coat of Sheila-Marie Suzanne Cook and the coat of the US Coastguard Cutter Sequoia. Parker's glossary, s.v. Flaunches, cites two similar coats for Mosylton or Moselton with square flaunches.
