Basic Information:[edit | edit source]

Many combinations of azure and sable (blue and black), especially azure on sable and sable on azure, 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.
