RAL 170 80 20
Cloud Mauve
RAL 170 80 20 Cloud Mauve is defined by hue 170, lightness 80, and chroma 20, a luminous pastel violet that captures the soft glow of sunset clouds reflected in still water and the translucent petals of sweet pea flowers. It is specified for children's bedroom walls, event space feature surfaces, and decorative packaging where a gentle, uplifting violet is desired. The higher chroma at this light level gives it more presence than a typical pastel while remaining effortlessly soft.
