BISTRE
HEX TRIPLET: #3D2B1F
(or bister) can refer to two things: a very dark shade of grayish black (the version shown on the immediate right); a shade of brown made from soot, or the name for a color resembling the brownish pigment. Bistre’s appearance is generally of a dark grayish brown, with a yellowish cast.
Beechwood was burned to produce the soot, which was boiled and diluted with water. Many Old Masters used bistre as the ink for their drawings.[1]
The first recorded use of bistre as a color name in English was in 1727; another name for the color bistre is soot brown
