"Fillet," a form of chief. It is also used as a band round the head of a person.
The fillet is by some considered the chief's diminutive, while others hold that it can have none. Some English heraldic books, and most foreign, speak of instances of two chiefs, one abased below the other in the same coat, but no English examples are ever adduced.
It is contended by some writers that the chief has a diminutive, and that it is given the name of fillet. French heralds, however, blazon this as "chef retrait," the word "filet" being used for a diminutive of the cotice. The word "combel" is also given by some English heraldic writers as meaning the same thing.
