Zinnwaldite is a color that resembles the mineral Zinnwaldite.

It is common for those in the baby boom generation to mistakenly think that this color (the color zinnwaldite) is beige (See beige ) because in the 1960s, AT&T marketed a colored telephone for offices and homes in a color they called "beige" which was actually this color, zinnwaldite.
