Timbre

Timbre, or Tymbre. According to J. G. Nichols in the Herald, and Genealogist is a " Crest," but C. Boutell, in his Heraldry, Historical and Popular, gives Timbre as the Helm when placed above the shield in an achievement of arms.

Heamne and Timbre are also used to expressthose things that are without the Escouchon to distinguish the Degree of Honour and Dignity, such as Crowns, Coronets, etc. It is taken in particular for the Helmet.
