Description
AGF Nocturnal (PE-428) is an intense, sophisticated shade of dark blue from the Art Gallery Fabrics’ Pure Solids collection, named for the deepest, darkest hours of the night.
Color Description
Nocturnal is a fundamental dark neutral, often used as a striking alternative to black. It is one of the darkest blue solids offered by AGF, providing a rich, mysterious depth to any project.
Hue: A very deep, classic Navy Blue. It is a true, saturated blue that is darkened significantly, rather than leaning heavily toward green (like a dark teal) or purple. Retailers describe it as a “deep, midnight blue.”
Tone/Value: It is an extremely low/dark value color. It reads as a near-black, deep background color. It is richer and softer than pure black, offering an element of color while still anchoring a palette.
Aesthetic: Nocturnal is mysterious, grounding, and sophisticated. It serves as an excellent anchor color in a palette, making brighter colors pop dramatically against it. It is a staple dark neutral for modern quilts, nautical themes, and any project needing a deep, non-black backdrop. The coordinating Aurifil thread is listed as 2785 Very Dark Navy, which confirms its identity as a rich, classic navy.
