The stone Buddhas of Usuki City in Oita Prefecture were carved during the 12th to 14th centuries.

While to the English ear (and perhaps eye) there is no distinct difference between “pale purple” and “light purple,” the Japanese had a color distinction between “usuki murasaki” and “asaki murasaki” (equivalent terms in Japanese to the English example) that we simply can’t appreciate with a web browser or monitor.
In fact, unless one is actually interested in recreating the actual dying process, it may be safer to consider both a paler purple (call it “lavender” if you will) and be done with it.
