If you are speaking of equine coat colors, the answer is roan. Roan coloration comes in various varieties also. If the horse has deep red coloration with white mottling and a dark tail and mane, it is a called a bay roan (due to the dark tail and main). Many of these horses, when their hair is groomed off look sort of lavender in color. A true lavender roan is the rarest color of equine and will sport white hairs at the top of the tail and base of the mane as well. An all over mottled roan horse who looks brownish is called simply a roan and has a light brown Maine and tail. When the roan horse is light enough to look as though it has a pinkish color, it is called a strawberry roan. One interesting thing of note is that genetically a roan-to-roan breeding is genetically lethal to a horses off-spring.
