Quicksilver
Quicksilver begins as a blue color on paper, then shifts with every surface, shadow and neighboring material. An LRV of 34 places it through the middle of the scale, where color and depth can remain visible as the light changes. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
