[ANSTHRLD] Ermined Or and Argent - is this still 'legal'

[Alden Drake]

Are we taking of "<Insert Color Here> ermined Or and argent", so the spots and tails alternate white and yellow?
 
Or are we talking about "Or ermined argent", or "Argent ermined Or"?
 
The former I've never seen done.  Because the ermine tails are so small, I wouldn't imagine it's good contrast.  The latter would be a metal on metal return for lack of contrast.

Isn't "Ermined Or and argent" something that is not permitted any more? I
would have thought that this would be considered to be a metal on a metal. I
have looked on morsulus.org, but have not been able to find an actual ruling
on it. Am I hallucinating (again), or is there actually a ruling on this?

In Service,
Luciana
