Using Hama 110 Matcha in a design
Next to Hama 18 Black it has a contrast ratio of 5.0:1, a clear edge, against 3.1:1 next to Hama 01 White. It works as a highlight on dark designs; beside white beads it still shows, but softly.
No other Hama color is within ΔE 3. The nearest, Hama 84 Olive Green, is ΔE 8.6 away (similar), so a swap would show; buy enough Matcha for the whole design.
Across brands, Artkal has the closest stand-in (Artkal S116, ΔE 3.4) and Nabbi the furthest (Nabbi N08, ΔE 13.1). Nabbi's palette is small (30 colors), which limits its matches.
Pegboards and sizes for Hama 110 Matcha
Hama 110 Matcha belongs to Hama Midi fuse beads (5 mm). It fits a 5 mm Midi pegboard (29 × 29 pegs), and because Perler, Artkal S or Nabbi beads are 5 mm too, it can share a board with them.
There is also a mini version, Hama Mini 110 Matcha (2.5 mm), handy for scaling a design down to about half size.
