   Emerald Green Color

   Emerald green has a dark history: the 19th-century pigment sold under this name, also called Paris green, was copper acetoarsenite, an arsenic compound so toxic it doubled as rat poison. Its cousin, arsenic-laden Scheele’s Green wallpaper at Longwood House, is even suspected of hastening Napoleon’s death on St Helena. This deep gemstone shade of the emerald green color is far safer today, and Pantone crowned “Emerald” its 2013 Color of the Year.

   Emerald Color

   Cleopatra worked emerald mines near Aswan two thousand years before the Colombian mines at Muzo took over as the world’s finest source. The green comes from trace chromium and vanadium substituting into beryl crystal. As a color, emerald (#028f1e) delivers that lush, precious wavelength perfectly on screen.

3. #00a267

   

   Emerald Light Green Color

   Fresh spring growth catching morning light, jewel-toned green with clarity. Emerald light green color (#00a267) borrows the lush richness of the gemstone. Eco brands and produce packaging both find good use for it.

4. #12221d

   

   Black Emerald Color

   The darkest emeralds sink toward a near-black green in shadow, where the trapped inclusions catch no light. Black Emerald color (#12221d) holds that deep jewel-dark tone from a Colombian Muzo mine. A rich moody study grounds itself here.
