Replete Chrysoprase

#2c924b
Notes

Replete Chrysoprase (#2C924B) is a true green 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 (138°, 54%, 37%) places it in the balanced band at a mid lightness. It works across type, buttons, and borders, saturated enough to feel deliberate but balanced enough to not fight the rest of the palette. 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

Replete
adjective

Latin replētus, filled — past-participle of replēre. As a color modifier, replete implies a saturated-and-fully-pigmented quality where the hue is completely loaded with its source pigment. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to brimming and suffused in usage.

Chrysoprase
noun

An apple-green variety of chalcedony — colored by trace nickel, mined principally in Australia, Poland, and Madagascar. The color refers to a polished Australian chrysoprase: a saturated, slightly cool yellow-green-blue with the matte translucency of cryptocrystalline silica. Cooler than apple.

Moderately saturated colors gain a small bump in P3 — the difference is usually visible side-by-side on wide-gamut hardware but won't change the character of the color.
