In all the examples in Maddelena's post, the items were listed as (for
example):

The following badge associated with this name was registered in
June of 1982 (via Laurel) and redesignated as regalia in October of 1998

Wouldn't "and redesignated as regalia" mean that it has been made
sumptuary?

Of course, sumptuary laws were pretty widely flaunted in the MA.  And,
does a mundane College of Arms have the right to designate regalia?  Is
this a period concept?
