Fitted Cobblestone
Fitted Cobblestone (#141E1D) is a deep teal with an earthy character. It leans grounded and natural, the kind of color that plays well with wood, clay, linen, and warm neutrals. Its HSL profile (174°, 20%, 10%) places it in the muted band at a dark lightness. It works well as a headline, icon, or deep background in an otherwise light layout, pairing cleanly with cream, bone, and warm neutrals. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary red. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.
Etymology
Old English fit, fit — past-participle of fit. As a color modifier, fitted implies a neutral-and-precisely-sized-and-tailored quality, the neutral color of Savile-Row-and-Bond-Street-tailoring precisely-cut-and-fitted-to-form gentleman's-tailoring craft-finish. Sits at the neutral-and-traditional end of the grid, parallel to tailored and suited in usage.
Old English cobel, rounded river-stone — the iconic dark-gray paving stone of medieval-and-early-modern European cities, particularly the Rome and Edinburgh historic-center streets. Cobblestone color refers to a Roma centro storico sampietrini cobblestone pavement-section in raking sun: a dark cool-gray with the matte finish of basalt-and-leucitite volcanic-rock cobblestones polished by centuries of vespa-tire wear.
Closest matches
The nearest named color in three reference sources, ranked by perceptual distance (ΔE76 in CIELAB). ΔE < 1 is imperceptible to most viewers; ΔE > 10 is clearly different. When two sources point to the same hex they’re merged into one tile; click any to open that color’s page.

This color has effectively no chroma (OKLCH C = 0.014) — it’s on the grayscale axis. Hue rotations don’t change a grayscale color, so complementary, analogous, triadic, and split-complementary all reduce to the same value. They aren’t shown because four identical tiles would be misleading.
Accessibility
How this color appears to viewers with the four major color-vision-deficiency types. Computed via the Machado (2009) physiologically-based model. If a tile matches the original, the color reads the same to that viewer.
The color used as foreground text against pure white and pure black, with the contrast ratio and WCAG 2.1 grade. Aim for AA (4.5:1) for body text and AA Large (3:1) for 18 pt+ headlines; AAA (7:1) is the gold standard for long-form reading surfaces.
Wide gamut
The CSS Color 4 wide-gamut form of this color. Both swatches render the same color on every display — the P3 form only diverges from sRGB when a designer pushes channels outside sRGB's reach.
This color sits well within the sRGB cube. P3 and sRGB share the gray axis and most desaturated tones, so a P3 display renders this identically to an sRGB display.
