sepia() CSS function - CSS | MDN

sepia() CSS function

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. Its been available across browsers since September 2016.

The sepia() CSS function converts the input image to sepia, giving it a warmer, more yellow/brown appearance. Its result is a <filter-function>.

In this article

Try it

filter: sepia(0);
filter: sepia(0.2);
filter: sepia(60%);
filter: sepia(1);
<section id="default-example">
  <img
    class="transition-all"
    id="example-element"
    src="/shared-assets/images/examples/firefox-logo.svg"
    width="200" />
</section>

Syntax

css
sepia(amount)

Parameters

amount Optional

The amount of the conversion, specified as a <number> or a <percentage>. A value of 100% is completely sepia, while a value of 0% leaves the input unchanged. Values between 0% and 100% are linear multipliers on the effect. The initial value for interpolation is 0. The default value is 1.

Formal syntax

<sepia()> = 
sepia( [ <number> | <percentage> ]? )
This syntax reflects the latest standard as per Filter Effects Module Level 1. Not all browsers may have implemented every part. See Browser compatibility for support information.
