This color evokes a sense of mystery, sophistication, and depth, making it a popular choice for designs that require a touch of elegance. Due to its deep tone, it is not commonly found in nature and is more readily associated with artificial colorants. Its hex code is #130750 and is often used to express power and strength. The color is best used as an accent color. The color is hard to read for individuals with limited vision.

The color #130750, also known as Tolopea, presents accessibility challenges due to its dark nature. When used as a background, it necessitates very light text (ideally white or near-white) to ensure sufficient contrast for readability, meeting WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards for contrast ratios. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text. In practical terms, this means careful consideration must be given to the font size, weight, and color of text placed on this background. Conversely, if #130750 is used for text, a very light background is essential. Failure to adhere to these guidelines can result in content that is difficult or impossible for users with visual impairments to perceive, thereby hindering accessibility. Designers and developers should utilize contrast checking tools to verify compliance and ensure inclusive design practices are followed. Color blindness simulators can also aid in assessing the color's suitability for users with various types of color vision deficiencies.
