noncolored
Lacking any pigment
Noncolored describes something lacking color or not belonging to a colored category.
The term appears in technical contexts like printing or graphics to distinguish between color and black-and-white elements.
Historically, it appeared as a racial classification for white people, the counterpart to "colored"—now dated and best avoided in that sense.
