House flag of Nicolas Couffa - Image by Ivan Sache, 9 March 2008
See also:
Nicolas Couffa is listed as a shipping company based in Marseilles in Lloyd's book of house flags and funnels of the principal steamship lines of the world and the house flags of various lines of sailing vessels, published at Lloyd's Royal Exchange. London. E.C. (1912) [LLo12], also available online thanks to the Mystic Seaport Foundation, #994, p. 84. I have not found any other occurrence of the company, which is not listed in the book on the Marseilles shipping companies by Paul Bois [boi03].

The house flag of Nicolas Couffa, as shown Lloyd's book of house flags and funnels of the principal steamship lines of the world and the house flags of various lines of sailing vessels, is quartered blue and white, which matches, coincidentally or not, the colours of the flag of Marseilles.
