Local Arts & Sciences Officers have the right to wear their Badge of Office. This should be passed to you, by your predecessor, when you take over office.
The Arts & Sciences badge is:
Azure, a candle enflamed within an arch stooped argent. (A white candle, under a white arch, on a blue background.) |
If you group has chosen to have separate Arts Officer and Science Officer, you may both use the Arts & Sciences badge, or the badges are as follows:
Arts: Purpure, an Irish Harp Or. (A gold harp on a purple background.) | |
Sciences: Per pale Or and Argent, a pair of Callipers Sable . (Black callipers on a background – left: gold, right: white.) |
The KMoAS, as one of the Greater Officers of State, is required to swear fealty and thus has a Chain of Officer to denote this. This is part of the Kingdom Regalia, for Greater Officers. The KMoAS may also use the Arts & Sciences badge.
