Not the vivid purple the name suggests, this indigo is dusty and grayed, closer to faded denim. Its low saturation keeps it matte and cool, so it works best as a supporting tone rather than a hero color. Black text sits comfortably on #6e75a6 at about 4.8:1, enough contrast for small body text under WCAG AA. The hex code suits meditation, creative, and night-sky themes where softer indigo reads better than pure blue.
