Note: Tinctures marked 'Rare' were rarely used historically, but are popular today.

Your source lists "bleu celeste" rather than blue, which makes sense as many of these words seem to be of French derivation...Very interesting quiz, I love to learn about this kind of stuff. I only remembered argent and sable for sure...
