Order of the Iris of Merit of Ansteorra Heavy Cotton Tee
Vibrant, creative, and unmistakably shining — this Order of the Iris of Merit of Ansteorra unisex heavy cotton tee is an unofficial tribute to the artisans, performers, and scientific and imaginative minds who illuminate the Society for Creative Anachronism with skill and beauty.
The front and back display a variation of the insignia associated with the Order of the Iris — a radiant star supporting a bold rainbow arcing between two white clouds, encircled in clean medieval lettering. This emblem speaks to artistic brilliance, expression through craft, and the joy that the creative bring to the Dream.
On the left sleeve, the same star-and-rainbow device appears without text, a subtle mark of artistry that stands on its own — bright, proud, and instantly recognizable to those who know the honor it represents.
Crafted from durable heavy cotton, this shirt balances softness and structure — ideal for artisans at work, courts, competitions, or simply celebrating the makers who enrich our kingdoms.
