In Heraldry, Diapering (from an old term for damask) is a technique in which those who draw achievements of arms attempt to decorate large areas of flat colour by drawing crosshatches or arabesques. There is no standard, and each artist is allowed his own idiosyncrasies.
Diapering is not specified in the blazon, so a shield with diapering is considered the same as a shield of the same design but without diapering. For this reason, however, diapering must not be so obstrusive or so heavily drawn that it could be mistaken for a charge or for a variation of the field.
