Against white it measures 6.59:1 and against black 3.19:1, so white text is the stronger pairing. That pairing passes WCAG AA for body text.
One color explored: close hues with real lightness and chroma structure, so the palette is the anchor through value rather than a set of colors.
#c2af9e · #9d8875 · #6f5944 · #55412e · #332211 · #140700
The anchor's neighbours on the wheel — everything shares an undertone, so the chord carries color without anything having to be muted to get along.
#8a8158 · #836b40 · #6f5944 · #6c4129 · #5a3027 · #472123
The mid-gap pairing — sage and mustard, terracotta and olive. A foil rotated 40–65° toward warm or cool: too far to be kin, too near to argue, carried by temperature and a deliberate value offset.
#b5bb9e · #959f69 · #787e65 · #6f5944 · #5a3b1a · #3d2202
One deliberately opposed voice — a single restrained counterpoint across the wheel, or temperature against temperature where the anchor is too muted to carry a loud opposite.
#d3bda8 · #74a1c8 · #6f5944 · #483e34 · #32200d · #130902
The anchor as the only color in the room. True neutrals or complement-warmed near-neutrals let it stay dominant.
#ecf3f9 · #bab1a9 · #74787c · #6f5944 · #4c433b · #010204
This color as a ground rather than a subject — its own restraint held across a narrow value band, carrying one saturated voice from the opposite temperature.
#faf0e7 · #d5cac0 · #6f5944 · #3e2f20 · #1c0d01 · #f3a147
The opposite hue on the perceptual wheel, tempered to field strength — warm/cool tension without vibration.
#e7f4ff · #93b7d7 · #517ca1 · #6f5944 · #254865 · #120500
The complement's two neighbours instead of the complement itself — strong contrast with a lower clash risk.
#e7f4ff · #86bdcb · #6b74a4 · #6f5944 · #0e4e5a · #010109
Three hues spaced evenly around the wheel; the anchor leads and the other two are held at supporting strength.
#e2f7f4 · #87c0b8 · #826c9b · #6f5944 · #4d3c61 · #000201
Two complementary pairs offset by 90° — the richest chord, kept usable by a strict lightness hierarchy.

#6B5A4A · #685B4F · #645C55
Its moderate chroma lets it work in mid-size areas — upholstery, secondary UI surfaces, editorial blocks — without overwhelming neighbors. In palettes it pairs most predictably with its tonal ramp and analogous neighbors; reserve the complementary hue for small, deliberate contrast.
