Orange (heraldry)
text:
In heraldry, orange is a tincture, rarely used other than in Catalan, South African, French municipal and American military heraldry. As a colour, Orange should be used against metals in order not to contravene the rule of tincture. Orange is distinct not only from Gules (red), but also from Tenné, which originated as the light-brownish colour of tanned leather, and from Carnation, used for the depiction of white human skin. Orange was not allocated a pattern in the system of hatching developed
