Геральдическая фигура, рассм. некоторвми как диминутив внутренней каймы (orle). Может быть одинарной, двойной – самый распрстранённый вариант, или, говорят и о таком, тройной (single, double, triple), fleury-counterfleury, как в гербе Шотландии (см.), благодаря чему иногда называется «royal tressure». При смыкании гербов должна следвать правилу каёмы и не распространятся на вторую половину, но исключния можно найти. Геральдическая фигура «within a tressure» должна распространяться только внутри этой каймы.
