Bountiful Kunzite

#a13785
Notes

Bountiful Kunzite (#A13785) is a true magenta 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 (316°, 49%, 42%) 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 green. 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.

Kunzite
noun

Pink variety of the lithium-aluminum silicate spodumene — first described from the San Diego gem-deposits of California in 1902 by George Frederick Kunz. The pink color comes from manganese substitution. Kunzite color refers to a faceted San-Diego-area kunzite: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the glassy finish of manganese-substituted spodumene gem crystal. Pleochroic between deep-pink and pale-violet.
