Abstract: A decorative sheet has a pattern formed with an interference pigment and is more versatile with reduced coloration specific to the interference pigment. A patterned layer has a pattern formed with an interference pigment to produce a color by interference of reflected light reflected after being incident as incident light on a front surface of the patterned layer. A front color-adjustment layer covers the front surface of the patterned layer and transmits the incident light, incident light, and the reflected light. A base film supports the patterned layer and the front color-adjustment layer. The front color-adjustment layer contains particles of a front absorbing pigment dispersed uniformly across the front color-adjustment layer. The front color-adjustment layer with the front absorbing pigment reduces a spectral component in a predetermined wavelength range of the incident light and the reflected light transmitted through the front color-adjustment layer.
