In this palette the hues fall in the cyan, magenta and yellow families, spread across 253 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.

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 rich, layered and celebratory.

A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
