Blue & White – National Pride and the Colors Preferred by Israeli Artists
The colors Blue and White tend to inspire Israeli citizens to elevated levels of pride and nationalism. Israeli artists, designers and artisans favor the two colors as natural shades which are invigorating, clean and contribute to a sense of tranquility. Blue can be found everywhere, in wide expanses of clear skies, as well in the calming and ever changing hues of Israels three seas, the Med, the Dead and the Red. White touches the senses offering a sense of purity, liberty and brightness. The two colors are regarded as positive colors.

Historians claim that the Blue and White colors of the Israeli flag are based on the colors of the special clothing worn by the high priests of Israel during their service in the Temple. In modern times an annual blue and white frenzy takes place in Israel when flags, banners, and streamers are displayed in store windows and on the balconies of most homes and apartments as preparations are made for Israels Independence Day celebrations.
Internet commerce has opened the world of blue and white Israeli made products to new markets and customers around the world. Israeli artists and designers offer their creations with pride to an ever growing market place. The awareness regarding Israeli made products overseas is influenced by supportive programs like the Buy Israel program of the America-Israel Chambers of Commerce. Buy Blue and White marketing campaigns have attracted huge support from Jewish and Christian organizations. These campaigns call on friends of Israel to support the economy by producing new jobs for the growing populace.
