Puce is a brownish purple color. The term comes from the French Script error: No such module "Lang"., literally meaning "flea color".[2]
Puce became popular in the late 18th century in France. It appeared in clothing at the court of Louis XVI. The color was said to be a favourite color of Marie Antoinette; however, there are no portraits of her wearing it.[3][4][5]
Puce was also a popular fashion color in 19th-century Paris. In his novel Script error: No such module "Lang"., Émile Zola describes a woman "dressed in a dark gown of an equivocal color, somewhere between puce and goose shit."[6] In Victor Hugo's Script error: No such module "Lang"., Mademoiselle Baptistine wears "a gown of puce-colored silk, of the fashion of 1806, which she had purchased at that date in Paris, and which had lasted ever since."[7]
In traditional Japanese iron work, bronze and copper are given a puce hue when coated in a solution of antimony trichloride dissolved in hydrochloric acid.[8]
