In heraldry, a charge which is fimbriated has and outline of another tincture. Only simple geometric charges may be fimbriated, and in SCA heraldry that charge must be in the centre of the field. Fimbriation is often used to allow a metal charge on a metal field, or a colour charge on a colour field.
The device of the East Kingdom features a fimbriated laurel wreath. As the laurel wreath is a complex charge the SCA College of Heralds would not register these arms if they were to receive the submission now.
