Freelance Heralds
Medieval heralds generally worked for a single patron (which could be a monarch or other noble personage, or an Order of chivalry). When speaking for the principal, the herald would wear a tabard bearing the arms of their patron, symbolizing the fact that the herald spoke not on their own behalf, but with the voice of their liege. Some heralds, however, were available to be hired to speak for anyone needing their services, and made this known by wearing mantles bearing the arms of their various employers.
The Society's heralds typically wear a tabard displaying the arms of the territory they serve. Occasionally a tabard bearing personal arms will be seen; this may be in tournaments of great pageantry, like Crown Tournies or pas d'armes, or a court ceremony like a coronation or elevation to the peerage. But given the expense of creating a heraldic tabard, not only in materials, but in the artisan's labor, personal heraldic tabards (distinct from armorial surcotes or other garments which bear the arms of the wearer) are quite unusual.
Dr Lynsey Darby, a former Archivist of the College of Heralds in London, reveals that Randolf Jackson, appointed Montorgeuil poursuivant by Henry VII in early 1486, provided heraldic services for the 135 Seigneurial families of Jersey. The Governor of Jersey, Matthew Baker, presented an expense claim[1] for a Tabard provided for Montorgeuil, "broidered with the devices of many Houses"[2]
Julian Wilson heralds a Pas d'Arms at the Ancient Hospital and Almshouse of St. Cross, in Drachanwald, near West Dragonshire (Southern England excepting London). The devices on the tabard are those of Seigneurial families of Jersey in the late 15th C, courtesy of the Librarian of our local historical Socièté Jersaise.
Construction of the Mantle
The mantle is in the form of a three-quarter circle Elizabethan fingertip cape, circa 1580. It is made of black silk velvet, trimmed with gold bullion gimp, and ornamented with heraldic badges and the arms of the territories and peers Giles has served as herald.

Giles has served Caid as herald for courts across the Known World, in The West, An Tir, Atenveldt, Atenveldt, Ansteorra, Aethelmerc, and Glen Abhan. He has repeatedly served as Golden Rose Herald, the staff herald charged with producing royal courts in Caid, and was created Chrysostom Herald by Sven and Kolfinna.[Barony of Bonwicke]
