64 Types of Dark Purple

 ,
Dark purples are purple or violet colors that have been shaded with black. This is a practical definition that refers to the fact that violet and purple are perceived as the same color despite originating from completely different ranges of light. Roman Emperors wore a dark purple known as Tyrian purple that was extracted from snails in a labor intensive process that made it expensive. For this reason, a culture of using purple to represent high status individuals and institutions emerged in the middle ages that remains intact to this day. Dark purple is perceived as an unusual color because it is rare in nature. It is also perceived as relative loud and difficult to look at for a dark color. As such, dark purple can serve as a bold fashion statement or visual image. The following are common types of dark purple color.
