Fleurs-de-lis feature prominently in the Crown Jewels of England and Scotland. In English heraldry, they are used in many different ways, and can be the cadency mark of the sixth son. The tressure flory-counterflory (flowered border) has been a prominent part of the design of the Scottish royal arms and flag since James I of Scotland.

To wreathe his shield, since royal James
