Porpora, or purpure, was not one of the usual tinctures in European heraldry, being added at a late date to bring the number of tinctures plus metals to seven, so that they could be given planetary associations.

The classic early example of purpure is in the coat of arms of the Kingdom of León: argent, a lion purpure, as early as 1245.
