An Award of Arms is given by the Crown and grants the right to bear and
display arms. The recipient was Bubba of Winchester, read into court on
January 25, 2014 in the regency court of Calum and Constanza in the
Barony of the Cleftlands.
The Award of Arms was created on pergamenata with Windsor-Newton gouache and 23K gold leaf. The calligraphy was done by
Ginevra Boscoli using black India ink and a Brause nib. The text reads as follows:
Be it known to all that we Cellach, King by right of Arms

heard much good of Bubba of Winchester, who has made himself worthy of
