Buzzed Arch Peridot

Imitative-onomatopoeic origin — past-participle of buzz, evoking the sound of bee-hum. As a color modifier, buzzed implies a saturated-and-vibrating-and-active quality, the bright color of insect-pollinator and neon-lamp low-amplitude-buzz visual-vibration. Sits at the bright-and-active end of the grid, parallel to jazzed and wired in usage.

Latin arcus, bow / curve. As a color modifier, arch implies a Roman-and-Gothic-and-Romanesque-vault quality, the visual register of Roman-aqueduct-and-Romanesque-cathedral hand-cut stone-and-brick voussoir-and-keystone arch-and-vault architectural surfaces under monumental architecture light. Sits at the modifier-and-architecture end of the grid, parallel to dome and vault in usage.

The transparent green variety of olivine — the gem mined from Egyptian Zabargad Island since pharaonic times and now from arid mountain ranges in Pakistan, Arizona, and Vietnam. The color refers to a faceted peridot: a clean, slightly yellow-shifted green with the gem's signature internal warmth. Lighter than emerald, brighter than olivine in its rough state, with the unusual gem-trade quality of being one of the few minerals that occurs in only one color.
