emeraldgreen

Emeraldgreen is a descriptive color term used to denote a vivid, medium-to-dark shade of green reminiscent of emerald gemstones. The exact hue varies by color system and brand, and emeraldgreen is not a standardized color name in major color catalogs. It is commonly used in design to convey richness, vitality, and sophistication.

In digital design, emeraldgreen appears as a range of greens with blue undertones. Because it is not a universally defined keyword in CSS, designers usually implement emeraldgreen as a custom hex or RGB value within a palette. Common implementations aim for a saturated, clean green that sits between green and teal.

Applications include branding for luxury goods, fashion, and interiors. It pairs well with ivory, charcoal, gold, and navy. Lighter variants evoke freshness, while deeper versions imply elegance and stability. When used with text, sufficient contrast is needed to ensure readability.

Relation to other colors: emeraldgreen is closely related to emerald and jade greens; it is typically more vibrant and often cooler than some greens. In printing, it is produced with CMYK mixtures that yield a bright blue-tinged green.
