The Marquisate of Saluzzo was a historical Italian state that included French and Piedmont territories on the Alps.

The Principality of Masserano, linked to the Marquise of Crevacuore, was a small independent state situated in a hilly area fifteen kilometers from Biella.

The state flag, or rather the prince's banner, appeared at the beginning of the 18th century and disappeared on 20 March 1767 with the incorporation of the principality into the Kingdom of Sardinia.

The emblem in the center of the white linen is still the symbol of the reigning princes of Ferrero-Fieschi, but at the heart is a blue and silver Fieschi shield.

The ancient counts, later dukes of Savoy, at least in the 13th century had the coat of arms of the crusaders corresponding to the aforementioned flag, possibly imported from England.

The meaning of the motto is not entirely clear; perhaps it is an acronym for Foedere et Religione Tenemur, also written on ancient coins.

The nautical flags were established with other insignia in 1802, when Vittorio Emanuele I ascended the throne, and the kingdom was confined to Sardinia itself.

The original Savoy's dial did not have an edge, but have been added to visually cut the coat of arms off the flag.

The flag of the Republic of Alba was designed by the jacobin Giovanni Antonio Ranza, who said that the blue and red were for France while the orange is taken to the tree of the Piedmont's shield.

The blue, red and orange flag existed in both horizontal and vertical tricolour versions, and it is used nowadays on some occasions by the region Piedmont.
