Named partners (harmony on the OKLCH wheel, co-occurrence in curated palettes and brand systems, and the neutrals that carry it), best first:

- **Cadet Blue** #5f9ea0 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Cadet Blue sits directly opposite #de670d on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. Seen in: Alpine (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/cool#alpine), Dusk (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/cool#dusk), Paper & Pine (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/minimal#paper-and-pine), Clean Beauty (https://brandsweets.com/palettes/minimal#clean-beauty). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/cadetblue
- **Charcoal** #36454f [role, pool] — Charcoal is the body-text near-black for #de670d: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.

- **Red** #ff0000 [harmony, pool: analogous] — Red is #de670d's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
