Ivory Black — Ivory Black may seem like a bit of an oxymoron at first glance, since Ivory is famously a pale or white shade. Ivory Black, however, is is a dark brown color, belonging to the brown color family. It has a warm tone due to its mix of red, green, and a small amount of blue components. In other words, it’s a standard black shade that’s been tempered with the smallest amount of Ivory possible in order to lend a touch of light to this otherwise dark brown shade.
