• Navy blue is #000080
  • rose gold be #B76E79

How could that best be translated most closely into that?

My only seeming understanding of color stuffs is blue is 0000FF (F seems to be the highest value). So what did the Navy do to that already highest value to make it darker(?)than blue?

I wasnt a particularly "mathy" or visual artsy kid ๐Ÿ˜”

It's hard to quantify since rose gold isn't a pure color like blue is, but a blend of metals (copper and gold), which means the base color is kinda subjective. I've seen things labeled "rose gold" that range from a light tan color similar to champagne, to a light purple pink, and everything in between.

I personally lean more towards the champagne end of the spectrum when I think of rose gold, so in my opinion, the hexcode you picked for your base rose gold seems a little too purply, and I would put it closer to #B76E6E or maybe #C0816D.

In my mind "Navy" rose gold would be a deep coppery mauve.

Just eyeballing it, maybe It would be something close to #4F2E2E or #4F1E2F?
