RAL 140 45 10
Warm Denim
RAL 140 45 10 Warm Denim sits at hue 140, lightness 45, and a restrained chroma of 10, a muted earthy mid-dark blue reminiscent of faded denim and overcast winter skies. It is specified for casual dining interior elements, heritage millwork finishes, and natural material colour coordination. The low chroma and moderate darkness produce a colour that feels mineral, grounded, and connected to everyday textile traditions.
