Literary analysis:
While the term “cultured” rarely serves as a literal color in literature, there are a few instances—most notably in titles such as THE CULTURED CHRISTMAS TREE [1, 2]—where its use hints at a visual, almost painterly quality. In these rare cases, “cultured” seems to evoke an aesthetic richness comparable to a finely blended tone, suggesting an overall appearance that is as refined and artfully arranged as the people and society it typically describes. Even when “cultured” functions primarily as a marker of intellectual and social refinement in most examples, its occasional deployment in a nominal, title-like fashion encourages readers to imagine a hue imbued with subtle elegance and tasteful vibrancy.

This tab, the new OneLook "color thesaurus", is a work in progress. It draws from a data set of more than 2000 color names gathered from sources around the Web, and an analysis of how they are referenced in English texts. Some words, like "peach", function as both a color name and an object; when you do a search for words like these, you will see both of the above sections.
