About this color
Tapestry sits at 324° on the color wheel with 34% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the magenta-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 34% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. Its mid-range lightness positions it as a mid-tone: neither a background color nor a deep accent, but something in between.
In digital environments, Tapestry is rendered as rgb(171, 84, 136), where the red channel dominates at 171, giving the color a clear red cast. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.
For print, Tapestry translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 51M 20Y 33K. With a moderate key (33%), this color uses black to deepen the chromatic channels rather than replace them, a profile that typically holds up well in both offset and digital print. No brands in the brandkit.pro library currently specify this exact hex as a named brand color.
