RAL 010 20 30
Dark Burgundy
RAL 010 20 30 Dark Burgundy is positioned at hue 010, lightness 20, and chroma 30, a very dark red that evokes aged wine and polished mahogany. Its low lightness and moderate chroma create a colour of quiet intensity, perfect for formal entrance doors, wine bar interior panelling, and luxury leather goods hardware. In dim lighting it reads almost black, revealing its burgundy character only under direct illumination.
