Harmony and structure
Two hues sit opposite each other on the wheel, each with a close companion. Complementary palettes have built-in tension: the opposite hues make each other look more vivid.
In this palette the hues fall in the green, magenta and rose families, spread across 191 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: 2 of its 5 chromatic colors lean warm and 0 lean cool. Its average chroma of 0.108 makes the saturation balanced.
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 Charcoal (#00351B) with Moss (#008C5A) at a contrast ratio of 3.21:1, 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 (#00351B), so this page suggests #DCFBE8 for text, a lightened Moss that reaches 12.46:1. 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: #00351B as the background, #934472 for cards and surfaces, #87286C as the primary brand color, #0A4630 as the accent, and #DCFBE8 for text (a computed lighter shade of Moss, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Give one side of the wheel to the background and structure and the other to calls to action. A small amount of the opposing hue goes a long way.
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.
