Falu redДЇalu red has deep meaning in many different areas of Sweden. You can thank Laura Bartolomei-Hill for the name, as she was the one who named the color at the age of five during CrayolaвЂ™s Name the New Colors Contest. The color is said to be one very similar to rose, which is found directly in the middle of magenta and red on the color wheel. Not the liquor nor the song, nor the television series, razzmatazz is red-pink color that was invented by Crayola in 1993, and was first found in the Big Box of 96. It is said that the color is also known in South African and Indian cultures as Ravi brown. The word fallow, to express the color, was first recorded in 1000. Though not a considered a вЂњprettyвЂќ color by some, the pale brown is named after the color many would see when looking into fallow fields as well as the soil, which was often sandy. In fact, it is one of the oldest color names to ever exist in the English language. Maybe something like вЂњFallow me right over yonder.вЂќ Fortunately, fallow is a word. Sounds like a word youвЂ™d hear out of someone with a heavy Southern accent. Gamboge as a color started to spread, and in the 17th century made its way to Europe, where it was first used in the English language in 1634. Besides being used as a watercolor, the color has also been used as a varnish for wood. The color comes from Cambodia, where in the 12th century painters would use the color as a watercolor paint.

The color is named after the gamboge tree, which is known for its yellow resin.

The color is a yellow pigment that is somewhat transparent, despite its dark tint. Think of spicy mustard and think of gamboge, but a little bit darker. For instance, there is the Malachite Room in Hermitage, and it is also said that DemeterвЂ™s throne was made of this color as well. The color is one that is seen rampant in history. Was widely used for green paints because it was lightfast and often varied in color. This vibrant green comes from the carbonate mineral known as Malachite, or copper carbonate. This color is also known as basic green 4 and is often used when creating a green dye. Malachite is probably a color weвЂ™ve all seen, but never known by its вЂњrealвЂќ name.
