About this combination

Combination 105 of 348 in Wada's six-volume 1933 work. A two-colour pairing of Cameo Pink, Chromium Green, as documented in the original plates.

Historical context

Plate 105 of Wada's 348 anchors Cameo Pink and Chromium Green in the red family — a 2-colour grouping with a refined, warm, austere character, recorded in the Showa-era volumes of Sanzo Wada's 1933 Dictionary of Color Combinations, where these shikisai names have sat in the public domain for generations. Its strongest pairing — Cameo Pink on Chromium Green — reaches a contrast ratio of 1.83:1, below the WCAG text-contrast floor, so it reads best in decorative blocks rather than text pairings.
