Basic Information:

Many combinations of purpure and sable (purple and black), especially purpure on sable and sable on purpure, would be considered low contrast and would be un-registerable using the Core Style rules. They would have to be registered as an Individually Attested Pattern formerly known as a Regional Style Exception.
