About this combination
Combination 107 of 348 in Wada's six-volume 1933 work. A two-colour pairing of Apricot Yellow, Light Grayish Olive, as documented in the original plates.
Historical context
Plate 107 of Wada's 348 anchors Apricot Yellow and Light Grayish Olive in the yellow family — a 2-colour grouping with a refined, 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 — Apricot Yellow on Light Grayish Olive — reaches a contrast ratio of 2.98:1, below the WCAG text-contrast floor, so it reads best in decorative blocks rather than text pairings.
