Is turquoise blue or green?
Turquoise can be blue or green, depending on the hue of the color being described as turquoise and individual color perception.
The color name turquoise is used to describe a range of bluish green and greenish blue colors. If a shade of turquoise is very close to cyan—the color halfway between blue and green on digital color wheels like Quillbot’s free Color Wheel—some people may describe it as blue, while others may describe it as green.
If you need to specify a turquoise shade accurately, you can add blue or green to the name (e.g., “medium turquoise green” or “bright turquoise blue”).
