About this color

Flush Mahogany sits at 357° on the color wheel with 58% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the magenta-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 58% 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, Flush Mahogany is rendered as rgb(201, 54, 61), where the red channel dominates at 201, creating a strongly red-skewed appearance. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Flush Mahogany translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 73M 70Y 21K. The low-to-moderate black value (21%) means the color's character in print comes primarily from its magenta ink content (73%), with black serving as a supporting shadow tone.
