Abstract: There is disclosed a set of color gages for assisting in selecting harmonious color combinations in accordance with those found in nature and the method of using such gages. In nature all colors can be classified into one of three groups called Solis, Aero und Aqua. All colors within each one of these three groups are compatible with each other, i.e., appear harmonious to the human eye. In addition, Aero colors are compatible with either Solis or Aqua colors, but not Solis with Aqua colors. The gages contain a plurality of colored segments which are Solis, Aero, and Aqua versions of each of the colors red, pink, yellow, green, purple, white, brown, and blue, without Aqua brown and Solis blue. The colored segments can be compared to a selected dominant color to determine which group's colors should be selected to achieve harmonious color combinations. <IMAGE>
