Teal is a cyan-green color. Its name comes from that of a bird — the Eurasian teal (Anas crecca) — which presents a similarly colored stripe on its head. The word is often used colloquially to refer to shades of cyan in general.
It can be created by mixing cyan into a green base or deepened as needed with black or gray. The complementary color of teal is maroon. It is also one of the first groups of 16 HTML/CSS web colors formulated in 1987. In the RGB model used to create colors on computer screens and televisions, teal is made by reducing the brightness of cyan to about one-half. Teal was a fad color during the 1990s, with, among others, many sports teams adopting the color for their uniforms.
The first recorded use of teal as a color name in English was in 1917. It is derived from the Middle English "tele", a word akin to the Dutch "taling" and the Middle Low German "telink". As a color, its name is believed to have been taken from the small freshwater common teal, a member of the duck family whose eyes are surrounded by this color. Teal blue is a medium tone of teal with more blue. The first recorded use of teal blue as a color name in English was in 1927.
The source of this color is the Plocher Color System, a color system formulated in 1948 that interior designers widely use. Teal was subsequently a heavily used color in the 1950s and 1960s. Teal blue is also the name of a Crayola crayon color from 1990 to 2003. Teal green is a darker shade of teal with more green. It is a variable color averaging a dark bluish-green that is green, darker, and stronger than invisible green or pine tree.
Teal green is most closely related to the Crayola crayon color Deep Space Sparkle.
