RAL 060 30 10

Smoky Moss

RAL 060 30 10 Smoky Moss occupies hue 060, lightness 30, and a restrained chroma of 10, a subdued dark grey-green that recalls lichen-covered stone and aged verdigris. It is ideal for museum display case linings, archival storage room finishes, and traditional interior millwork. The very low chroma at this dark level gives it a near-neutral warmth that feels timeless and contemplative.
