What does the word "Dune" (as in the new Mini Lin color) mean in French??

Thanks!! I was thinking it meant kind of a sandy-beige color, but another TPF member said that the pic he saw of it was green-ish??

Anyone have any idea what the word means in French?? TIA!!

If you think about a sand dune it is kind of tinged with green. Color is pale yellowish-gray to pale bluish-gray.

i think the colour is similar to the Damier Geant "sable". which might explain why someone sees a greenish tinge to it.

Yeah, the word 'dune' in itself doesn't mean anything in French, but combined with 'de sable', it means sand dune.
