It's GtkColorSwatch, which is not available publically, unfortunatelly. However, due to GObject's run-time type system, it's possible to create those widgets.

import gi
from gi.repository import Gtk, GObject

GObject.type_from_name("GtkColorSwatch") # 1

Gtk.ColorChooserDialog() # 2
GObject.type_from_name("GtkColorSwatch") # 3

Line 1 fails, because GObject doesn't know this type yet. Line 2 creates GtkColorChooserDialog, which has GtkColorSwatch's. A side-effect of this creation is that GTK_TYPE_COLOR_SWATCH gets registered in GObject type system and that's why line 3 succeeds.

This is the source code of the widget used on gtk3-widget-factory :

static void
populate_colors (GtkWidget *widget)
{
  struct { const gchar *name; const gchar *color; const gchar *title; } colors[] = {
    { "2.5", "#C8828C", "Red" },
    { "5", "#C98286", NULL },
    { "7.5", "#C9827F", NULL },
    { "10", "#C98376", NULL },
    { "2.5", "#C8856D", "Red/Yellow" },
    { "5", "#C58764", NULL },

  gint i;
  GtkWidget *row, *box, *label, *swatch;
  GdkRGBA rgba;

  gtk_list_box_set_header_func (GTK_LIST_BOX (widget), update_title_header, NULL, NULL);

  for (i = 0; i < G_N_ELEMENTS (colors); i++)
    {
      row = gtk_box_new (GTK_ORIENTATION_HORIZONTAL, 20);
      label = gtk_label_new (colors[i].name);
      g_object_set (label,

                    "valign", GTK_ALIGN_CENTER,
                    "margin", 6,
                    "xalign", 0.0,
                    NULL);
      gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (row), label, TRUE, TRUE, 0);
      gdk_rgba_parse (&rgba, colors[i].color);
      swatch = g_object_new (g_type_from_name ("GtkColorSwatch"),
                             "rgba", &rgba,
                             "selectable", FALSE,
                             "halign", GTK_ALIGN_END,
                             "valign", GTK_ALIGN_CENTER,

      box = gtk_box_new (GTK_ORIENTATION_HORIZONTAL, 0);
      gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (box), swatch);
      gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (row), box, FALSE, FALSE, 0);
      gtk_widget_show_all (row);
      gtk_list_box_insert (GTK_LIST_BOX (widget), row, -1);
      row = gtk_widget_get_parent (row);
      gtk_list_box_row_set_activatable (GTK_LIST_BOX_ROW (row), FALSE);
      if (colors[i].title)
        g_object_set_data (G_OBJECT (row), "title", (gpointer)colors[i].title);
    }

  gtk_list_box_invalidate_headers (GTK_LIST_BOX (widget));
}

I suggest you go visit their github : Widget factory GitHub
