Etymology

In summary

From Old French escarlate (“scarlet cloth”), from Medieval Latin scarlatum (“scarlet cloth”), of uncertain origin, but possibly from Persian سقرلاط (saqerlât, “a warm woollen cloth”), a variant of سقلاط (seqellât, “scarlet cloth”), from Byzantine Greek σιγιλλᾶτος (sigillâtos), ultimately from Latin (textum) sigillātum; or, alternatively, from Germanic.
