About this color

Black Pearl sits at 211° on the color wheel with 85% saturation and 8% lightness, placing it in the blue segment of the spectrum. With saturation at 85%, this is a high-chroma color: the kind that anchors palettes and demands considered placement. Near-black lightness makes it read as a deep, absorptive tone — color is implied more than seen.

In digital environments, Black Pearl is rendered as rgb(3, 20, 38), where the blue channel is highest at 38, though it sits close to the other channels. High saturation combined with low lightness creates deep, jewel-toned results — useful for premium UI elements, hover states, and focused interaction areas.

For print, Black Pearl translates to a CMYK breakdown of 92C 47M 0Y 85K. The dominant black channel (85%) does most of the tonal work here — cyan, magenta, and yellow contribute minimally, so the printed result will be a deep, near-neutral tone that reads differently from its screen equivalent. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
