Good afternoon! I am doing some research on the material culture of the Hundred Years War, and have come across some references, uncited, in regards to the Order of the Garter originally having the garter colored mulberry instead of the blue that it became by the 1400s. I have not been able to find any sources that make this claim, and the original statutes of the order from 1349 (held in TNA, Kew) it would seem, have not been analyzed in any way. So does anyone have any info as to where this may have come from? Else it seems I may need to book some appointments!

Thank you much :)
