Meaning & Story
From the French crème meaning cream — Cream suggests the pale, rich color of heavy cream, evoking luxury, smoothness, and a certain understated elegance.
Cream is a color-name with sophisticated restraint. Rather than the more obvious Ivory or Snow, Cream suggests something warmer and richer — the exact tone of heavy cream poured into coffee, a pale golden white with depth. It works beautifully for light-coated animals with that particular warm, cream-colored coat that is neither quite white nor quite yellow. Cream owners tend to have an aesthetic sensibility that prefers the understated over the obvious.
