Cendrée

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In heraldry, cendrée is a tincture, the colour of Iron and Walls (i.e., gray). It is not used in English heraldry but is quite frequent in the rest of Europe. In France in particular derived from widespread use in German Heraldry. In Italian Heraldry the gray colors have been often replaced with blue celeste. The name "cendree" derives from French "ash coloured". The word is akin to the English word "cinder"
