In several literary passages the term “beech” is not merely a reference to the tree but functions as a distinct color—a subtle, natural hue that evokes the understated warmth and gentle speckles characteristic of beech wood. One author, for example, describes a particular sample by writing, “This, with smooth bark and lighter spots, is beech” [1], suggesting that the term can evoke a precise visual impression. In other instances the word appears on its own as a color designation—“Beech.” [2][3][4]—as though cataloguing it among other hues. In these examples, “beech” becomes a shorthand for a naturally calm, earthy tone that lends texture and a quiet elegance to the narrative landscape.
