About this palette
Royal Raspberry Umbra is palette number 17,519 of Tintly's fifteen million generated palettes. It is a jewel tone palette built on a tetradic scheme, and it is anchored by Raspberry (#B73E90), the most saturated of its five colors.
The palette reads as opulent, warm and luxurious. Its colors run from Raspberry (#B73E90) at the light end to Espresso (#4B0301) at the dark end, covering 26% to 56% perceptual lightness, so it has real range rather than five similar tones.
The five colors
1. ≈ Raspberry #B73E90: suggested role text. It is a magenta color with 56% lightness and a chroma of 0.179, which makes it clearly saturated.
2. ≈ Rust #8A5D0E: suggested role accent. It is a orange color with 51% lightness and a chroma of 0.104.
3. ≈ Pine #026346: suggested role surface. It is a green color with 44% lightness and a chroma of 0.093.

5. ≈ Espresso #4B0301: suggested role background. It is a red color with 26% lightness and a chroma of 0.103.
Harmony and structure
Four hues are spaced around the wheel in two complementary pairs. It is the richest scheme, and the hardest to balance.
In this palette the hues fall in the magenta, orange, green, blue and red families, spread across 313 degrees of the OKLCH hue circle. Jewel tone palettes keep chroma between 0.1 and 0.2, and lightness between 28% and 58%, which is why the set feels consistent.
Temperature and mood
Overall the palette is warm: 3 of its 5 chromatic colors lean warm and 1 lean cool. Its average chroma of 0.12 makes the saturation rich.
That combination suits luxury and hospitality, premium packaging and financial and legal brands, and it is a good fit when you want a design to feel opulent, warm and luxurious.
Accessibility and contrast
The strongest pairing is Raspberry (#B73E90) with Espresso (#4B0301) at a contrast ratio of 3.12:1, which is WCAG AA large. Across all 10 possible pairs, 0 reach the 4.5:1 AA level for normal text and 1 more reach 3:1 for large text.
No other palette color reaches 4.5:1 on the background (#4B0301), so this page suggests #FEECF6 for text, a lightened Raspberry that reaches 14.12:1. Check any pair you use in the contrast checker.
All five colors stay distinguishable under protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia simulations, which is a good sign, although it is no substitute for testing with real users.
How to use it
Suggested roles: #4B0301 as the background, #026346 for cards and surfaces, #043778 as the primary brand color, #8A5D0E as the accent, and #FEECF6 for text (a computed lighter shade of Raspberry, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Let one hue take most of the space and use the others sparingly. Control the mood with lightness and saturation rather than hue.
Typical uses for a jewel tone palette include luxury and hospitality, premium packaging, financial and legal brands and fine-dining menus. Open it in the generator to lock the colors you love and reroll the rest, or in the visualizer to see it on real layouts.
