Joss — In Chinese folk religion, “joss sticks” are fragrant sandalwood or bamboo sticks that have been coated in incense to produce a sweet, heady aroma when burned. As a color, Joss captures some of the aged history and reverence that these incense sticks represent, and the end result is a soft, muted shade of brown with pale red undertones. It belongs to the Gray, Beige, and Brown families. Its high, close RGB values make it a desaturated gray, while a slightly higher red value gives it a subtle warm, brownish cast.
