Bountiful Mughal

#919107
Notes

Bountiful Mughal (#919107) 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 (60°, 91%, 30%) 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.

Mughal
noun

The Mughal Empire (1526–1857) — and the warm yellow palette of Mughal miniature painting, particularly the Mughal Yellow pigment derived from cow urine and used for the saturated yellow robes of Akbar-period court paintings. The color refers to a Mughal jali sandstone screen at the Diwan-i-Khas: a saturated, slightly red-shifted deep yellow with the matte finish of carved sandstone.
