fadeless

Eternally retaining color

Fadeless means not subject to fading—retaining color, brightness, or intensity over time.

The word appears most often in poetic or elevated contexts: fadeless glory, fadeless beauty, fadeless memories.

It suggests permanence against the usual decay that time brings.

In practical use, fadeless may describe dyes or fabrics resistant to losing color.
