#856B78

The hexcode #856B78 is a lighter, warmer, and more saturated variant of the shade "Old Lavender". By itself, it is commonly associated with shade (96.7% match), malevolent (96.5% match), and exalted (95.8% match). When Old Lavender is combined with Old Heliotrope, it relates to the terms forgive and harmful. When joined with Deep Coffee, it becomes more related to the term alluring. When Old Lavender is added to Bone, it shares association with the terms ignite and unnecessary. When paired with its complementary color #6B8578, a darker, cooler, and more saturated variant of the shade "Xanadu", it shares connection with the terms cursed or muted. However, when we analyze the color next to its other triadic colors, #77856A (a shade of "Camouflage Green") and #6A7785 (a shade of "Slate Gray"), the resulting palette becomes harder and warmer than the complementary color palette and changes from the color index category of "casual" to the "natural" category. Specifically, the new triad is most suggestive of established and lavender.
