Regal Vega violet

Latin rēgālis, kingly — derived from rēx (king). As a color modifier, regal implies a saturated-and-royal-formality quality, the deep-rich color of British-Coronation-period royal vestment-and-mantle and Imperial-State-Crown regalia. Sits at the bold-and-imperial end of the grid, parallel to sovereign and royal in usage.

Arabic al-nasr-al-wāqi', the-falling-eagle. As a color modifier, vega implies a brilliant-blue-white-and-summer-zenith quality, the visual register of Lyra-constellation-and-northern-summer-Vega hand-brilliant-blue-white-and-summer-zenith Lyra-constellation-and-northern-summer-and-Bortle-1-sky vega-and-brilliant-blue-white-and-summer-zenith surfaces under Lyra-constellation-and-northern-summer-and-Bortle-1-sky July-and-August-northern-zenith deep-sky-light. Sits at the modifier-and-cosmic end of the grid, parallel to deneb and altair in usage.

Viola odorata, the European sweet violet — small, fragrant, and the original meaning of the color name in English (the Violet of the rainbow). The color refers to a fresh sweet violet blossom in late winter: a saturated, slightly red-shifted deep blue-purple with the matte finish of small five-petaled flower. Cooler than amethyst, warmer than indigo, with the perfumed weight of a flower used in Roman garlands and Victorian eau de toilette.
