#bca42frgb(188, 164, 47)hsl(50, 60%, 46%)oklch(0.72 0.133 97.1)Charcoal, Cornflower Blue and Cadet Blue lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
