goldish
Tending toward yellow-metallic
Goldish means somewhat gold in color—having a gold-like quality without being fully or purely gold.
It describes things with a yellowish metallic tint: Her hair had a goldish sheen in the sunlight.
The suffix -ish signals approximation, suggesting the color approaches gold without quite reaching it.
