ivorycolored

Ivorycolored is an adjective used to describe a pale, off-white color that carries a warm, yellowish undertone similar to ivory. The term is commonly employed in fashion, interior design, product descriptions, and branding to convey understated elegance, softness, or vintage character.

Color values associated with ivory vary by system and manufacturer. In digital design, the color often referred to as ivory corresponds to hex values around #FFFFF0 and RGB (255, 255, 240); many ivory tones lie within a similar range, slightly more yellow or cream depending on lighting and context. Ivorycolored is therefore not a fixed shade but a family of closely related hues that sit between white and cream.

In practical use, ivorycolored can describe textiles, wallpapers, paints, plastics, ceramics, and even lighting. It is typically chosen when a room, garment, or object should read as warm-light neutral rather than stark white. The term is often paired with other neutral colors such as beige, taupe, or gray to create contrast and balance.

Because ivory historically refers to the material from elephant tusks, the term carries ethical and conservation considerations. In color discussions, ivory and ivorycolored are used as descriptors of appearance rather than endorsement of the material itself. When accessibility is a concern, sufficient contrast should be ensured when ivorycolored elements carry text or UI elements.
