The color flame is a medium scarlet hue.[2] The word is not traditionally used as to describe any color in HTML,[3] nor has it ever been a Crayola color.

The first recorded use of flame as a color name in English was in 1590. [4]

The source of this color is the ISCC-NBS Dictionary of Color Names (1955), a Color dictionary used by stamp collectors to identify the colors of stamps--See sample of the color Flame (color sample #34) displayed on indicated page: [1].
