[MR] Regalia Question: Court Baron/ess

[Duchess Rachel Wallace]

It is 6 points, they can either have "pearls" (meaning some type of round stone or jewel or etc) on the top of each point or it can have jewels on the band below each point.

Otherwise, it's up to the person's taste, finances, persona, and ego.  I've seen coronets made of metal, horn, leather, and in one case a rack of antlers.  I've seen all kinds of jewels, stones, pearls and ornaments.  It's all a matter of what does the person consider tasteful, does it go with their persona, and can they afford it or afford to have it fixed when eventually down the road something breaks off or it gets squished.

  Good evening, gentle cousins!

  Might I inquire of someone more familiar with the Great Book of
  Atlantian Law (or with the Kingdom website) where I might find
  information on acceptable regalia?  Specifically, I seek information
  on what a Court Baron/ess coronet may (and may not)
  be/have/exhibit/etc.  For instance, is there a height restriction?  I
  believe it's six points and there may be pearls on those points; are
  other gems acceptable?  Are there any other important things to
  consider from a design perspective?

  I thank you all most humbly in advance for your assistance!

  in Service,
  Baroness Meli
