Eau de Nil (water of the Nile) is a cool, light bluish-green hue with a little tan undertone. It was popular in the middle of the 1800s when Europe was Egypt-obsessed but much more subdued colors were desired after Empire style. It complements very well the palette of light neutrals (e.g. creme, off-white, light beige, sand) but even looks good on big surfaces.
