Slate gray is a gray color with a slight azure tinge that is a representation of the average color of the material slate. As a tertiary color, slate is an equal mix of purple and green pigments.[2][3]
Slaty, referring to this color, is often used to describe birds.
The first recorded use of slate gray as a color name in English was in 1705.[4]
