Colors that go with Petrified Purple
Charcoal, Emerald Green and Midnight 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.

Olive Drab #6b8e23
complementaryOlive Drab sits directly opposite Petrified Purple on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Medium Sea Green #3cb371
split-complementshippedMedium Sea Green is a split-complement of Petrified Purple: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
