Abundant Tirkizhna

#15772a
Notes

Abundant Tirkizhna (#15772A) is a deep green with a jewel character. It carries the deep, saturated richness of a gemstone. Authoritative and slightly formal, it works well for type and heavy UI elements. Its HSL profile (133°, 70%, 27%) places it in the balanced 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 magenta. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Abundant
adjective

Latin abundāre, to overflow — present-participle of abound. As a color modifier, abundant implies a saturated-and-plentiful quality where the hue carries surplus visual richness beyond minimum requirement. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to plentiful and bountiful.

Tirkizhna
noun

The Slavic word for turquoise-colored — used across Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish color vocabulary for the saturated blue-green of Iranian and Central Asian turquoise. The color refers to a tirkizhna-glazed samovar: a saturated, slightly cool deep blue-green with the high gloss of fired ceramic.
