Bountiful Pommery

#7c8a09
Notes

Bountiful Pommery (#7C8A09) is a deep yellow 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 (67°, 88%, 29%) places it in the highly saturated band at a dark lightness. Best used in small doses, like logos, CTAs, focus rings, or highlight text, where its saturation becomes a feature rather than noise. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary blue. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Pommery
noun

The Champagne house founded in Reims in 1858 — and the saturated yellow of Pommery Brut Royal vintage labeling. Pommery refers to a vintage Pommery Champagne in a flute: a soft, slightly cool warm pale yellow with the optical clarity of long-aged sparkling wine. Warmer than champagne.

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.
