The Mardi Gras Gold Tradition:

What Makes Gold Special:
- One of the three official Mardi Gras colors since 1872
- Represents power and prosperity
- The wealth and abundance of Carnival celebration
- Every krewe throws gold doubloons
- Gold is triumph, success, and celebration
- The color of the most coveted throws
- Rex (King of Carnival) throws gold doubloons
- Gold doubloons are collector treasures
When you wear Mardi Gras gold, you're wearing Gulf Coast power and prosperity.

The jester captures the spirit. The holographic finish mimics flying aluminum. The gold honors Rex's power tradition.
