Latin Persia, Persia. As a color modifier, persia implies an Achaemenid-and-Safavid-Imperial quality, the visual register of Achaemenid-Persia-and-Safavid-Persia hand-built Persepolis-and-Isfahan-and-Persian-rug-and-tile Imperial-Persian surfaces under Persepolis-and-Isfahan Achaemenid-and-Safavid Imperial-Persian high-desert light.

The dense canopy of a temperate or tropical woodland — oak, beech, pine, eucalyptus, mahogany — wherever leaves close above to filter the light below. Forest green refers to the average reflectance of a healthy mid-summer canopy seen from below: a saturated, slightly muted green with the matte finish of layered chlorophyll. Deeper than fern, cooler than olive, with the ecological weight of a word that has named every wooded biome on Earth.
