#51484f - Smoky Quartz color

Deep, muted plum with strong gray-brown undertones, this dusky shade reads as a sophisticated smoky mauve.

Elegant and restrained, it suits moody interiors, vintage-inspired textiles, and understated branding that seeks quiet luxury. Works well as an accent against creams, soft greens, or warm metallics, adding depth without overpowering complementary palettes.
