Cerise (color)

Cerise is a deep to vivid reddish-pink color. Its name is derived from the French word "cerise," which means "cherry." Specifically, it refers to the color of ripe cherries.

The exact shade of cerise can vary, but it generally falls within the range between carmine and rose. It is often described as a bright and cheerful color, associated with vibrancy and energy.

Cerise has been used in fashion, design, and art for centuries. Its usage in fashion can range from bold statement pieces to subtle accents. In design, it can be employed to add pops of color and create visual interest. In art, cerise can be used to depict a variety of subjects, from landscapes to portraits.

The color is sometimes confused with other shades of red and pink, such as fuchsia or magenta, but cerise generally has a slightly warmer, more reddish undertone.
