Who doesn’t love blue? TRUE BLUE is a dynamic display of how blue works its magic, vibrance, and timelessness. Our AF gallery is wrapped up with all blue’s meanings and varying shades for you to enjoy.
The color blue is the most universally appealing color on the spectrum. It can represent trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, and sensitivity. But it can also convey fragility, depression, impersonality, and even coldness. There was a time when the pigment blue was the rarest and most precious shade of all. Some artists even went into debt to use the color! With so many intriguing shades of blue carrying so many meanings and representations, who knew blue could say so much!?!
