The first owner of this armorial was Archduke Albert VI of Austria. Hans Ingeram included in each page of his book from 1 to 6 coats of arms, he dedicated the initial part to the Habsburg coats of arms, to imaginary coats of arms and to the coats of arms of European kingdoms, generally using 4 coats of arms per page, and dedicated the final 2/3 of its content to depicting 6 coats of arms per page of the lower German nobility, especially nobles belonging to a special type of «associations» whose purpose was the organization of tournaments. A monograph on this armorial can be consulted in [Becher, C.; Gamber, O.; 1986].

Flanched, schemaat one-third
Outlines and proportions of a flanched design at one-third.
This is my standardized way of delineating curved flanches, so that they remain tangent to a pale and, therefore, the width of both curved flanches and the space between them is equal to one third of the base. Some draw the flanches using circles, but I believe they look better as two half-ovals, which together would form a complete oval, with the height equal to that of the shield and the width two thirds of the base of the shield, that is, one third for each of the flanches, as in the figures illustrating this article. However, it should be noted that, depending on the charges, the separation distance may be adjusted.
Types of flanched designs
The «flanqueado curvo» corresponds to «flanched» in English, since for them the curved form is the default. [Avilés, J.; 1725b; page 92, figure 197] calls it «flanqueado en óvalo».
The «flanqueado apuntado» formed by 2 opposed triangles I call «pointed flanched» in English, as I have not found a better term. [Avilés, J.; 1725b; page 92, figure 198] calls it «flanqueado en sotuer», but what he draws in his book actually corresponds to a «cuartelado en sotuer» since the two points of the flanking meet at the center of the coat of arms.
«Flanqueado» without adjectives corresponds in Castilian to an «adiestrado» as opposed to a «siniestrado», and I refer to it in English as «flanked by two pales» having found no better translation.

Flanched, schemaat one-fifth
Outlines and proportions of a flanched design at one-fifth.
Regarding the flanched design, [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 92] writes: «it is said of a figure that divides the Shield from the side of the flanks, sometimes by means of half-ovals», such as those in the diagram that illustrates this article, «and other times by means of half-lozenges, which run from the angle of the Chief to the angle of the base on the same side, whence they take their beginning».
In [Avilés, J.; 1725a; figure 197] an example of a flanched shield is illustrated with the arms of Oschoven on the Rhine, where the space left between both flanches is 1/5 of the base of the shield and, therefore, the width of each flank is 2/5 of the base of the shield, being 2/5 + 1/5 + 2/5 equal to the full base.

Oschoven of the Rhin
Argent, flanched Sable, in chief a mullet of six points Gules.
Escudo de plata, flanqueado curvo de sable, en jefe una estrella de seis rayos de gules
Coat of arms interpreted with: a semicircular (round) base; illuminated in the tinctures Argent, Gules, and Sable; all outlined in Sable; and finished with a raised-stroke effect.
[Avilés, J.; 1725a; pages 92 and figure 197] blazons it as «Argent, and a six-pointed star Gules in chief, flanched in oval Sable». When he illustrates it in [Avilés, J.; 1725a; figure 197], the space left between both flanches is only 1/5 of the base of the coat of arms; this is feasible because the only charge is a mullet in chief. If there were more charges, it would be necessary to leave more space, for example, 1/3 of the base of the shield.
«Oschoven au Rhein» in the book [Menestrier, C. F.; 1659; page 315], it is blazoned «d'argent flanqué arrondi de sable à vne molette de mesme en chef», so the mullet would be Sable, bacause «de mesme» is written, and with a hole in the middle, this hole does not exits in other sources.
In the book [Rietstap, J. B.; 1861], it is blazoned «Argent, flanched in round Sable, Argent charged in chief of a mullet Gules», and in French «d'argent, flanqué en rond de sable, l'argent chargé en chef d'une étoile de gueules».
Some time ago I used to blazon it in English as «Argent, in chief a mullet of six points Gules, between two flanches Sable».
