- **Royal Blue** #4169e1 [harmony, pool: split] — Royal Blue is a split-complement of #56591d: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

- **Blue Violet** #8a2be2 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Blue Violet sits directly opposite #56591d on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.

- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #56591d: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.
