Celeste, to me, strikes a balance between being breezy (light in shade) but not desaturated (dull/grey/limp), not dedicatedly green but not baby blue either.
looks reasonable, but digital color fidelity is Not.
also “ sea-foam green” is a marketing name
I used to work in the auto industry and from time to time invented the names.
for powder coat, the various suppliers cluster pretty well around a RAL number.
use that for identifying what you want.
Bianchi is notorious for changing the color and still calling it Celeste. Add to that, old paint often fades. If not changing in hue, changing in value.
I have in the past bought a sister bike in the color I wanted just to have something to match to. Sell it off later.
