Mediterranean water blue

A nuanced blue with clear freshness and controlled saturation.

Venetian Blue is a deep, cool blue with moderate darkness and clear saturation, creating a far-reaching, subtly maritime presence. Its tonal balance conveys calm and precision, while its delicate depth creates a quiet elegance. The hue evokes associations with deep water, enameled surfaces, and shaded stone textures.

Venetian Blue 197 has historical connections to mineral pigments used in frescoes, ceramic glazes, and textile dyeing to convey depth and permanence. In fashion, the hue appears in compact cottons, fine silks, and textured wools, which underscore its crisp freshness. In interiors, it blends sensitively with warm woods, silvery metals, or light natural stones, creating a harmonious and tranquil interplay. In color compositions, it serves as a unifying element between light neutrals and dark accents.
