[ adjective ] black with a tinge of blue and no hint of brown
Used in print (S. J. Perelman, The Rising Gorge. New York:...)She was a living doll and no mistake - the blue-black bang , the wide cheekbones , olive flushed , that betrayed the Cherokee strain in her Midwestern lineage , and the mouth whose only fault , in the novelist 's carping phrase , was that the lower lip was a_trifle too voluptuous .
