Cotinga Purple

#501345

Cotinga Purple is a very dark plum-magenta, almost black but with an unmistakable berry warmth, like beet juice or black cherry. Cotinga is a genus of tropical birds, several with deep purple plumage. Light Green Yellow sets up a sharp acid complement, Ochraceous Salmon warms it gently, and Slate Color keeps it subdued and serious. With roughly 13.8:1 on white it is a deep text color in its own right. Consider it for evening wear, chocolate packaging or a dark accent wall.
