Verdigris

Verdigris looks like oxidized copper sitting under a cool sky. It's a blue family color, but it doesn't feel like "fresh mint" teal at all. Compared with the brighter, sea-glass middle tones nearby, it comes off more blue-first and more grounded, with a muted, weathered calm rather than a clean sparkle.

Use it when you need a teal accent that reads settings screens and form feedback without turning airy like the lighter turquoise-leaning options. It's strong for inline tags, secondary buttons, and status pills in health and fintech UI, especially when you want confirmation or emphasis that still feels steady on busy dashboards. Against Ambrosial Oceanside, you'll notice Verdigris is a touch lighter and less aggressively saturated, so it draws attention more softly.

Quirk: because of that oxidized undertone, it can look a bit more gray in very low-contrast themes. Pair with crisp blues or cooler neutrals so it keeps its character.
