Abstract:
A device for determining harmonious color combinations, comprising:a color selector wheel;a base to which the color selector wheel is rotatably attached, the base including a plurality of distinct color selection groups disposed beyond and surrounding the periphery of the color selection wheel, each color group forming an unobstructed window; andcolor selection indicia on a face of the color selector wheel, the color selection indicia including multiple symmetrical geometric symbols centered on the face of the color selector wheel, the indicia each having a marked primary vertex and a plurality of secondary vertices disposed adjacent to the periphery of the color selector wheel, the multiple geometric symbols being comprised of at least one triangle and at least one quadrilateral, the at least one triangle including an equilateral triangle and an isosceles triangle disposed on the face of the color selector wheel such that the marked primary vertices are opposite to one another 180.degree. about the periphery of the wheel, and the at least one quadrilateral including a square and a non-equilateral rectangle disposed on the face of the color selector wheel such that there is no overlap of the vertices of each, whereby alignment of the marked primary vertex with a selected color selection group automatically aligns the secondary vertices with harmonious color combination selection groups.
