RAL 050 40 25
Warm Ochre
RAL 050 40 25 Warm Ochre sits at hue 050, lightness 40, and chroma 25, a warm earthy mid-dark yellow reminiscent of natural yellow ochre pigment and sun-baked sandstone. It is specified for natural stone colour coordination, pottery studio fittings, and rustic restaurant interior millwork. The moderate chroma and darkness produce a colour that feels organic, grounded, and connected to ancient earth pigments.
