Emerald, also calledemerald green, is a tone of green that is particularly light and bright, with a faint bluish cast. The name derives from the typical appearance of theemeraldgemstone.[6]
The first recorded use ofemerald as a color name in English was in 1598.[7]Ireland is sometimes referred to as theEmerald Isle due to its lush greenery. The May birthstone is emerald. Seattle is sometimes referred to as theEmerald City, because its abundant rainfall creates lush vegetation. In theMiddle Ages,TheEmerald Tablet ofHermes Trismegistus was believed to contain the secrets ofalchemy. "Emerald City", from the story ofThe Wonderful Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank Baum, is a city where everything from food to people are emerald green. However, it is revealed at the end of the story that everything in the city is normal colored, but the glasses everyone wears are emerald tinted. TheGreen Zone in Baghdad is sometimes ironically and cynically referred to as theEmerald City.[8] TheEmerald Buddha is a figurine of the sitting Buddha, made of greenjade (rather than emerald), clothed in gold, and about 45 cm tall. It is kept in theChapel of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew) on the grounds of theGrand Palace in Bangkok. TheEmerald Triangle refers to the three counties ofMendocino,Humboldt, andTrinity in Northern California, United States[9] because these three counties are the biggestmarijuana producing counties in California and also the US.[9] A county-commissioned study reports pot accounts for up to two-thirds of the economy of Mendocino.[9]Emerald Cities: Urban Sustainability and Economic Development is a book published in 2010 by Joan Fitzgerald, director of the law, policy and society program atNortheastern University, aboutecologically sustainablecity planning.
Emerald was invented in Germany in 1814. By taking acetic acid, mixing and boiling it with vinegar, and then by adding some arsenic, a bright blue-green hue was formed.[10] During the 19th century, the arsenic-containing dyeParis green was marketed as emerald green.[11] It was notorious for causing deaths due to it being a popular color used for wallpaper. Victorian women used this bright color for dresses, and florists used it on fake flowers.[12]

In order for all the colors to be spaced uniformly, it was found necessary to use a color wheel with five, non-arbitrary, equally spaced primary colors: red, yellow, green, blue, and purple.
The color of the sample is the mostchromatic (colorful) green in the sRGB gamut that falls in the hue of 5G (primary green) in the Munsell color space.

Brunswick green is a common name for green pigments made fromcopper compounds, although the name has also been used for other formulations that produce a similar hue, such as mixtures ofchrome yellow and Prussian blue. The pigment is named afterBraunschweig, Germany (also known as Brunswick in English) where it was first manufactured. It is a deep, dark green, which may vary from intense to very dark, almost black.[41]
The first recorded use ofBrunswick green as a color name in English was in 1764.[42] Another name for this color isEnglish green. The first use of English green as a synonym for Brunswick green was in 1923.[43]
Deep Brunswick green is commonly recognized as part of theBritish racing green spectrum, the nationalauto racing color of the United Kingdom.
A different color, also calledBrunswick green, was the color for passenger locomotives of the grouping and then the nationalizedBritish Railways. There were three shades of these colors and they are defined under British Standard BS381C – 225, BS381C – 226, and BS381C – 227 (ordered from lightest to darkest). The Brunswick green used by the Nationalised British Railways – Western Region for passenger locomotives was BS381C – 227 (rgb(30:62:46)). RAL6005 is a close substitute to BS381C – 227. A characteristic of these colors was the ease for various railway locations to mix them by using whole pots of primary colors – hence the ability to get reasonably consistent colors with manual mixing half a century and more ago.
The color used by thePennsylvania Railroad for locomotives was often calledBrunswick green, but officially was termeddark green locomotive enamel (DGLE). This was a shade of green so dark as to be almost black, but which turned greener with age and weathering as the copper compounds further oxidized.[44]
