RAL 180 25 10
Dark Aubergine Shadow
RAL 180 25 10 Dark Aubergine Shadow occupies hue 180, lightness 25, and a restrained chroma of 10, a subdued near-neutral dark red-violet that recalls the skin of aubergine in deep shadow and the quiet depth of old mahogany. It is ideal for archival room interiors, heritage cabinetry finishes, and traditional joinery details. The low chroma at this dark level gives it a near-neutral warmth that feels timeless and quietly sophisticated.
