color chart
Painter's reference sheet
A color chart is a printed reference showing a range of colors with their names, codes, or mixing formulas.
Paint stores display color charts for customers to compare shades.
Printers use them to ensure accurate reproduction.
Artists consult them when mixing pigments: I picked the wall color from a chart at the hardware store.
