The Duchy of Savoy was not able to deploy a proper naval policy until the acquisition of Sardinia in 1720. In early times, the Savoyard Sardinian ensign was a white cross on a red field, with the "FERT" cypher on the cantons, either to distinguish it from Malta's own ensign and probably to make it closer to the traditional civil ensign of Sardinia itself (a red cross on a white field, with a black head on each canton). At some point within the XVIII century, this white cross was placed on the canton of a plain blue field.
