Etymology

The term 'oxblood' originates from the late 19th century, initially referring to the color of the blood from an ox. It combines the word 'ox', which refers to a domesticated bovine animal, and 'blood', a fluid that is essential for life and is red when oxygenated. The color gained popularity in fashion and design during this time, often associated with the luxurious and elegant qualities of deep red shades. Oxblood became particularly prominent in the early 20th century, as designers sought to incorporate rich, vibrant colors into their palettes. Today, it remains a popular choice in clothing, accessories, and interior design, symbolizing sophistication and boldness.
