This high-contrast pairing of teal and burnt orange possesses a distinct undersea quality that evokes the mythical lost city!
First mentioned by the Ancient Greek philosopher Plato more than 2,300 years ago, Atlantis is known as one of the oldest and greatest mysteries of the world. According to him, the utopian kingdom existed some 9,000 years before his time and then mysteriously disappeared one day. Legend says that the city was built by Poseidon - god of the sea, storms, and earthquakes - when he fell in love with a mortal woman named Cleito. To show his enduring love, he created an entire city perched on an isolated island to protect her...
