Light Mauve
#9a72aa
Light Mauve is a medium lavender purple, balanced between red and blue, with the soft look of a crocus petal. Cinnamon Buff warms it with a peachy tone, Venice Green gives it a cheerful aqua complement, and Red Violet deepens it into a rich purple-on-purple study. Its contrast on white is about 3.9:1, adequate for large headings but not body copy, while on black it reaches about 5.4:1. Use it for children's illustration, spring textiles or the packaging of a lavender soap.
