pale turquoise

Washed-out cyan shade

Pale turquoise is a soft, muted blue-green color—turquoise with reduced saturation, as if diluted with white.

It evokes calm water, sea glass, or weathered copper.

The shade appears frequently in coastal decor and spring fashion: The bedroom walls were painted pale turquoise.
