What Colour Is Taupe

Taupe means "mole" in french. It's sweet brown, as the animal. Some kind of "sweet chestnut purée" brown.

A dusky brownish gray color, which is the color of the fur of the European mole (Talpa europaea). The word "taupe" is the animal's name in French
Here is a color swatch I prepared for you on Photobucket:

It's a dirty beige colour. They invented a colour more boring than beige!

It's a creamy, browny,beige - it can also be likened to porridge. It most definately not purple (are you thinking of mauve?)
