At the end of the maturation process, the olives are black, due to the formation of anthocyanins. Hence, table olives are green when they are picked before reaching a development stage known as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oliveoilsource.com\/definition\/veraison\" target=\"_blank\"><em>veraison<\/em><\/a>, and their colour ranges from dark green to pale yellow.
