DMC 208 to Madeira: Thread Conversion

Madeira 0804 is a close match for DMC 208, covering the very dark lavender range. Madeira's characteristic sheen at this deep saturation level adds a subtle richness — slightly more luminous than DMC's matte version, in a way that suits velvety subjects like iris petals and luxury fabric depictions. The warm, slightly pink-leaning undertone that defines the lavender family should be intact; verify against a cool dark purple to confirm 208's warm identity is preserved before using in a lavender gradient.
