About this color

Sepia Black sits at 344° on the color wheel with 73% saturation and 10% lightness, placing it in the magenta-red segment of the spectrum. At 73% saturation, the hue is fully legible and confident — richly chromatic without tipping into high-contrast territory. Near-black lightness makes it read as a deep, absorptive tone — color is implied more than seen.

In digital environments, Sepia Black is rendered as rgb(44, 7, 17), where the red channel dominates at 44, giving the color a clear red cast. High saturation combined with low lightness creates deep, jewel-toned results — useful for premium UI elements, hover states, and focused interaction areas.

For print, Sepia Black translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 84M 61Y 83K. The dominant black channel (83%) 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.
