Ship's wheel and anchor color reference
A ship's wheel turns the rudder that steers the ship, and its spokes extend past the rim to act as handles. An anchor holds a ship in place by digging its flukes into the sea floor. Both are long-standing symbols of the sea.
Colors to reach for
Give the wheel warm wood browns with brass gold on the hub and fittings, the anchor dark iron, and the rope a sandy tan.
