In 17-limit just intonation, 17/14 is the septendecimal supraminor third measuring about 336.1¢. It is the mediant between 6/5 and 11/9, as it is (6+11)/(5+9). A 14:17:21 root-3rd-P5 triad can be built with 17/14 as the bottom third and 21/17 as the top third. This may thus represent a septendecimal "shading" of a minor triad.
