Turquoise sits between blue and green, and it tends to be the shade people pick when standard blue looks too corporate. It is popular for jewellery, ocean-themed models, signage and decorative panels, and it holds its vividness on small parts where darker colours go muddy. In a workshop it also makes a good marker colour for temporary or prototype components, since nothing else on the bench looks like it. SA Filament produces it here in South Africa, so the tone repeats across orders — worth knowing if a set is printed over several weeks. Spools arrive sealed and wound for snag-free feeding.
