What color is Saint Patrick Blue?
Saint Patrick Blue is a name that refers to different shades of blue associated with Ireland and its patron saint.
The official color of Ireland in heraldic terms is azure blue.
The color blue's association with Saint Patrick dates from the 1780s, when it was adopted as the color of the Anglo-Irish Order of St Patrick.
The Order used a sky blue mantle and riband, a hat lined with blue, and a badge ringed with blue enamel.
The term St Patrick's Blue was common but never officially used by the Order.
The exact shade of blue used by the Order varied over time and was sometimes confused with a darker, rich blue.
Saint Patrick Blue is still found in symbols of both the state and the island of Ireland, such as flags, armbands, and uniforms.
