Armes, Étendards et Symboles

The Baronial Standard represents the personal authority of the Baron and is subordinate only to the Arms themselves.

It is displayed when the Baron is present or in residence at Château d'Or, and serves as the primary banner of authority of the House.

The Arms of the Noble Baronial House of Hamelin constitute the primary heraldic expression of the House.

They are borne by the Baron as Head of the House and represent the authority, continuity, and identity of the title.

The Arms are used on official documents, seals, standards, and ceremonial objects in accordance with established precedence.

The House Flag is the official banner of the Noble Baronial House of Hamelin.

It represents the institution of the House independently of the personal presence of the Baron and is displayed in his absence.

The Personal Standard of the Baron is the heraldic banner representing Jeremy David Paul Hamelin in his personal capacity as bearer of the title.

It is distinct from, and subordinate to, the Baronial Standard, which represents the authority of the office itself.

The Personal Standard may be displayed in contexts relating specifically to the person of the Baron, including private residence, personal travel, or non-official appearances, but does not supersede the Baronial Standard in precedence.

The Court Banner is the formal ceremonial banner of the Noble Baronial House of Hamelin, intended for use in courtly, representational, and indoor settings.

It incorporates the official Court Tartan as its field and bears the authorized charges and mottos of the House.

The Court Banner is displayed during formal assemblies, ceremonies, and occasions of representation, and serves as a visible expression of the dignity and order of the House.

The House maintains a traditional Naval Ensign for ceremonial, maritime, and contextual use.

The ensign is regulated in design and use and is displayed only in appropriate situations.

The Court Tartan is reserved for high ceremonial events and representational use.

The Baronial Seal is the authenticating device of the House.

It is impressed exclusively in gold wax and affixed to instruments of authority, including Letters Patent, Charters, and formal appointments.

The Field Tartan is intended for a broader contextual application.

The Baronial Cypher is the personal emblem of the Baron.

It is used for identification, decoration, and internal marking and does not supersede the Arms or the Seal in authority.
