Even Tyr Peacock

Old English efen, flat, equal — used as a color modifier since the medieval period for hues that read as uniformly distributed across a surface. Even gray, even tan: the implication is moderate saturation combined with optical uniformity. Sits at the crisp-bucket center alongside steady and balanced.

Old Norse Týr, one-handed-god-of-justice-and-war. As a color modifier, tyr implies a one-handed-god-and-Fenrir-binding-and-justice quality, the visual register of Norse-Tyr-and-Fenrir-binding hand-one-handed-god-and-Fenrir-binding-and-justice Norse-Tyr-and-Fenrir-binding-and-Tiwaz-rune tyr-and-one-handed-god-and-Fenrir-binding surfaces under Norse-Tyr-and-Fenrir-binding-and-Tiwaz-rune Asgard-pantheon-and-Tiwaz-rune-stone justice-and-binding-light. Sits at the modifier-and-myth end of the grid, parallel to thor and odin in usage.

Pavo cristatus, the Indian peafowl whose male displays the most elaborate sexual ornament in birds — a fan of two-meter eyespotted tail feathers in iridescent blue-green. The color is structural, not pigmented: created by interference patterns in the feather barbules. Peacock blue refers to the dominant body color: a saturated, slightly muted teal-blue with the optical depth of structural color. Cooler than persian, warmer than sapphire.
