Ottoman Red Color – #ee2222: Codes and Complete Breakdown
By
Published on
The Ottoman flag, and the Turkish flag that followed it, put a white crescent and star on a field of strong red. #ee2222 carries that spirit as a clean poppy red with a little warmth and no blue at all. Against real flag bunting it runs brighter, more screen glow than wool banner.
