Order of the Pelican

Order of the Pelican

This amazing piece of stained glass art was created by my campmate Q Phia Sherry, pictured on the left, as an award to Lucius Aurelius Valharic. He was being elevated into the Order of the Pelican. As per the SCA website, "Members of the Order of the Pelican are recognized for great service to their kingdom or to the Society as a whole, usually for many years and without thought of reward. They are chosen by the Crown in consultation with the Order. They are addressed as "Master" (name) or "Mistress" (name). Their insignia is a "pelican in her piety," a pelican piercing her breast to feed her young with her own blood."
