| | | This is a piece from 3119 - what color is it? (URL) other bricks in the picture are standard colors, for comparison. We're thinking of calling it "Apricot" or something similar... Peach doesn't really work, since it's too pink... Ideas? :) D&J (25 years ago, 20-May-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.scala)

| | | | | (...) Most probably 'apricot' would be most apt, but since it's an approximation of a plant pot colour, you could even go with 'terracotta'. But 'apricot' would cover other uses. pete.w (25 years ago, 20-May-00, to lugnet.scala)
