It's on Lyon's Court page but I just got up and haven't even had breakfast yet so I haven't doublechecked. Why did I look at Xmarks first?
I believe that's what I said. A "clansman's badge" or a "chief's crest badge", since the crest of the Chief is encircled in the buckle & strap.

This is what the Lyon Court's web site says:

It is correct for these people to wear their Chiefs Crest encircled with a strap and buckle bearing their Chief s Motto or Slogan. The strap and buckle is the sign of the clansman, and he demonstrates his membership of his Chiefs Clan by wearing his Chiefs Crest within it.
Now we're just splitting hairs.
