Ralph de Albini ~ Rauf de Albini.

Gules, a fess of five fusils Argent.

Escudo de gules, una faja de cinco fusos de plata.

Coat of arms interpreted in the following manner: the shape of the base is semicircular; the field is illuminated in Gules; the fusils outlined in Sable and illuminated in metal Argent; the fess is 5 fusils in length; and the whole with an iridescent finish.

I tend to blazon «Gules, a fess of five fusils Argent» ~ «Escudo de gules, una faja de cinco fusos de plata» which, as the piece called a fess touches the edges of the shield and is a unit, means the fusils touch the edges of the shield and touch each other, forming a single fess of 5.

While in the blazon «Gules, five fusils in fess Argent.» ~ «Escudo de gules, cinco fusos en faja de plata» the fusils neither touch each other nor the edges of the shield; this second blazon tells us that the fusils are «in fess» ~ «en faja», it does not tell us that they are forming a fess.

Berry of Molland, Devonshire.

Or, three fesses Gules.

Escudo de oro, tres fajas de gules.

It is possible that an English-speaking herald would have blazoned it as «Or, three bars Gules.» using the term «bars» instead of «fesses», just as in Castilian one sometimes uses the term «barras» instead of «palos», perhaps because these terms were not completely settled from the outset.

In the Battle of Nájera, on the way to Navarrete, Pedro I of Castile, with direct English support, and his half-brother Don Enrique de Trastámara, with indirect French support, faced each other. English and French hoped that supporting their side's victory would allow them to have the Castilian fleet on their side, which was more powerful than theirs, in their Hundred Years' War.
