Pair of lips (Accepted)

Lips are the folds of flesh surrounding the mouth, essential for speech and useful for evoking emotion.  They were originally justified for Society armory by the use of other body parts in period armory (eyes, heads, feet, &c).  However, the open mouth – including lips and teeth – is a period charge, found in the canting arms (Italian bocca) of di Bocardi, mid-15th C. [Triv 79].

Saundra the Incorrigible bears:  Per bend sinister argent and azure, a pair of lips gules and three increscents argent.
