80 Color Tones

 ,
A tone is a color that has been mixed with grey. This can be compared to a shade that has been mixed with black or a tint that has been mixed with white. A tone has been both shaded and tinted such that it's generally a little less colorful than the original hue of color. However, tones can have high contrast with both light and dark colors such that can be perceived as more colorful than shades or tints. The following are examples of well-known colors that are tones.
