Color Theory

Copper Clay is a rich brown that functions strongly as a neutral. It sits near the warm orange-red side of the wheel, giving it a warm presence that can either support nearby colors or become a clear focal accent depending on contrast. Its hue of around 16° gives it its warm earth brown character, its saturation of about 58% makes it feel rich rather than flat, and its value of about 69% gives it a mid-tone, usable weight.
