31 Types of Golden Yellow

Paul Davis, updated on April 17, 2023

Gold yellow is a bright slightly orangish yellow color based on the characteristic color of pure gold. Yellow is the true color of gold. However, people have long used the term gold to describe a great variety of things such as golden hair or golden wheat such that gold is often imagined as heavily orangish yellow or brownish yellow. Gold yellow is an ornate and auspicious color that is symbolic of wealth. The following are common types of gold yellow.

Generally speaking, a flat color doesn't capture the metallic shine of gold. In a digital environment, this can be simulated with textures and images.

The following is an image of gold as a color comparison. The color True Gold above was sampled from this image. If you compare, this is far more yellow and less organish and brownish than the other colors in the palette. It appears that most established colors attempt to simulate the metallic nature of gold with a darker color. It is also possible that people imagine gold as being more orangish that it is in reality.
