History

Indian Yellow, a pigment used in Mughal miniature painting, was produced from the urine of mango-fed cows — an extraordinary material history hidden behind a simple hue.

Design use

Practically speaking, this deep yellow is most at home as a background for light-coloured text, as a deep accent stripe, or as an anchoring tone in dark-mode interfaces. It pairs naturally with off-whites, warm creams, and metallic highlights.

Colour pairings
