Persian orangeis a color used in pottery and Persian carpets in Iran. The first recorded use of Persian orange as a color name in English was in 1892. Orange pudding (milk added to pureed oranges that is mixed in a blender with flour and slowly boiled on a stovetop) is colored Persian orange, assuming no food coloring is added. Allis-Chalmers tractors have been colored Persian orange since 1928 so that, even when caked with dirt, they could still be distinguished from landscape features.
