About Mauve

Mauve is a pale, grayish-purple that's sophisticated and vintage. It's the first synthetic dye color ever created.

Accidentally discovered in 1856 by William Perkin. Mauve became the first mass-produced synthetic dye and started a fashion revolution.

Mauve works great for vintage themes, sophisticated designs, and elegant products. It's popular in interior design. Great for heritage and refined branding.
