What is the meaning of the color Tiffany Blue?
Charles Lewis Tiffany chose a shade of robin’s egg blue for the cover of the first Blue Book catalogue in 1845, making it one of the earliest examples of a color used as a brand identity. The shade became so associated with Tiffany and Co. that the company trademarked its specific use in commercial contexts. In 1998, Pantone assigned the color its own custom code, 1837, matching the year Tiffany and Co. was founded in New York.
