Seashell
Do you want to use this color in your promotional items? Here's what you should know!
Seashell is an off-white color with pale pink tones. It is inspired by the various seashells that line the beaches. The first use of the word as a color is traced to 1926. As a color, seashell is symbolic of being shy, yet independent and self-reliant. It also represents growth, fertility, and eternal life.
Turtles, crabs, barnacles, urchins, and lobsters all have shells. These aquatic creatures build a world of their own inside. Seashell has a color meaning inspired by this self-reliance.
