The seeds of the amaranth plant can be roasted and mixed into candy, but the flowers are what gives Amaranth Red its name, based on the similarity in color between the two. Like carnelian, jasper stones are variations on the semiprecious chalcedony stone. Jasper stones are typically considered “impure”, as they often have visible bands of iron ore or other compounds running throughout them. Nevertheless, they are highly valued for their vibrant hues and can come in green, red, or green with red spots. Jasper Red is named after the bright orange-y red color that Jasper sometimes displays.

In medieval science, a Sanguine temperament meant that the person in question had blood as the predominant “humor” or liquid inside of the body. As a result, they were believed to be cheerful, spontaneous, and impulsive. Sanguine Red derives its color from its resemblance to the color of dried blood. Not all wines are red, of course. White wines and rose-colored wines are popular in certain circles.

There are actually several different definitions of Magenta, but most sources seem to agree that the color falls somewhere between purple and pink and true red. The screencolor Magenta is identical to Fuchsia, but traditional pigment Magenta tends to have a darker and less vivid shade to it. Folly Red is a cheerful shade of red that looks a little bit orange despite not having very much yellow tint to it at all. It has actually got more blue in it than the average shade of red does, and the end result is slightly lighter and sweeter than usual. This is a warm-toned rose red. It has both blue and yellow undertones, so it should be paired with warm, light browns or used to complement cool-toned grays. Because of the additional yellow undertones, this would be appropriate for use with men’s products.

Cinnabar is a solid form of mercury sulfide. Prior to the rise of industrialization, it was the most common source for mercury ore, and the reddish brown stone was highly valued by the ancient Romans for the volatile metal it held within. Cinnabar red is reddish-brown, almost orange. Virgin Lust is a variation on the Lust color listed earlier. The main difference between the two is that Virgin Lust has a slightly lighter tint to it and it leans a little bit closer to the brighter end of the spectrum than towards a pure red.
