84 Classic Colors

 , September 21, 2019 updated on February 23, 2021
Classic colors are named colors that have a long history of use in areas such as art supplies, fashion and interior design. Many of these have fallen into disuse such that they have a nostalgic feel. It is also possible for a color to be identified with a particular decade or era. For example, Paris green is particularly associated with the Victorian era and canary yellow with the 1960s.
