ColourEmerald Palettes

Pantone® named ‘Emerald’ the colour of the year 2013 [HERE], And whether you associate this colour with the gemstone or with nature’s lush greens, I’m sure you’ve kept an eye on all things ‘Emerald’.

Here are 8 sampled shades of emerald including the Pantone® selection (starred).

Muted colours & neutrals work well with Emerald because they accentuate its strong, dominant presence.

Combine Smartly with Floral Pinks! This one’s inspired by nature. Consider how often we marvel at beautiful pink clusters (flowers) in glistening seas of emerald (leaves).

Combine with deep Pinks & Purple. Very attractive; very dramatic! Think of this as an exaggerated version of the floral option.
