Is it okay to applique & embroider the following on a coat for me: on a plate (white roundle) dovetailed, a boar's head couped close to sinister sable, armed argent? (essentially the BTY heraldry's centerpiece with a different metal as the background and dovetails)
About how much overlap of the front panels is on the front of those snazzy, mantle-like, wool coats? Any?
Any closures usually?
Is it okay to border the neck with a dovetailed strip of white or does that resemble any sumptuary laws I don't know about?
[late add] Also, what are these traditionally lined and interlined (if applicable??) with?
