Literary analysis:
In literature, “berry” is sometimes employed not just as a fruit but as a vivid color descriptor that evokes the natural hues of ripened fruit. For example, a “berry‐brown steed” [1] uses the rich, earthy tone of berries to paint an image of warmth and depth, while a character’s face is compared to being “ruddy as a winter berry” [2], suggesting a flushed, vibrant quality. These usages illustrate how writers draw upon the familiar and evocative colors of berries to enrich their descriptions, lending a touch of organic brilliance to their imagery.
  1. 19 'Where were ye, my berry-brown steed, That I paid for sae dear, That ye woudna waken me out o my sleep
    — from The English and Scottish Popular Ballads, Volume 1 (of 5)
  2. "Whose step?" returned the Carrier, standing in the portal, with his brown face ruddy as a winter berry from the keen night air.
    — from The Cricket on the Hearth: A Fairy Tale of Home by Charles Dickens

This tab, the new OneLook "color thesaurus", is a work in progress. It draws from a data set of more than 2000 color names gathered from sources around the Web, and an analysis of how they are referenced in English texts. Some words, like "peach", function as both a color name and an object; when you do a search for words like these, you will see both of the above sections.
