What colour is this blanket?

[benjy]

Hi folks,

I'd like to know what you think the colour of this blanket is.
I've created a poll with a few options but if you think if it fits to a different colour then please comment
P.s. It's not one of those trick colour photos. Your voting choice is appreciated

I'd say Teal blue but every colour listed has a number of pantone shades all called the same thing.
eg this is Pantone Aqua blue

I’d say aqua - definitely not turquoise

I lean toward a dark cyan

It’s a runaway at the moment. Just a couple who seem to be colourblind.

Tourmaline blue.

Red

I was debating between turquoise blue and teal blue but went with turquoise because I thought teal was more of a green colour. Regardless of the name, I absolutely love the colour.

It reminds me a bit of the colour of the flag of Kazakhstan.

Tourmaline blue.

Tourmalines vary from lemon yellow to green, blue and amber!

That was my thnking on teal. Always thought they were more green than that picture.

And now the thread really rocks. It's no longer sedimentary.

And I thought it was a bed spread, not a blanket.

I think in modern parlance it is a (pick one) duvet comforter doona

Is that image from the 1960s, or the 70s?

Thanks all for your replies.
So my original post is the colour that is advertised for the blanket. Below is the blanket that has been received.
What are your thoughts on the colour received, does it match what is advertised?
Understand colour may be a bit difficult to judge whilst it is in the packaging, but don't want to take it out as is pain to repack.

Its on the blue side and to me, no hints of green which would be the case if it was teal. A shade of Aqua blue.
