From the elegance of a little black dress to the ominous omen of a black cat, from the authority of a karate black belt to solemn black mourning attire, this dark hue has long been an astonishing source of contradiction and intrigue. We take a look at the history of black.

Is black even a colour?

Ask a child with a crayon, and you’ll be told that black is most certainly a colour – probably with some interesting examples! Ask a scientist, and you’ll be told that black is the absence of colour, and that a black object absorbs all colours and reflects none back to be seen.


To this day, there is no actual black dye used commonly in textiles. The look of black is achieved with a combination of dark blues, purples and ochre tones – you can see this by dipping the nib of a black marker pen in water. The resulting bloom of diluting watery dye will be a fascinating swirl of dark purple, blue or brown.
