#9E6E9E sits at 300° on the color wheel, placing it in the magenta family of the neutral half of the spectrum. With 20% saturation and 53% lightness, it reads as a softly muted, balanced tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 158, 110, 158 produces a 5.18:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #9E6E9E is a clear variant of CSS gray — about 46 units away from #808080. Designers reach for magenta hues at this saturation when the brief calls for restraint and atmosphere, and at this lightness when they want a present, comfortable mid-canvas voice. On screen the balanced cast tends to pair best with either warm or cool accents depending on the surrounding palette.
