RAL 220 45 20
Warm Poppy
RAL 220 45 20 Warm Poppy sits at hue 220, lightness 45, and chroma 20, a mid-dark warm red with earthy warmth reminiscent of dried poppy petals and the shadowed interior of Tuscan terracotta walls. It is specified for boutique interior elements, heritage millwork finishes, and restaurant dining room surfaces. The balanced chroma and moderate darkness produce a colour that feels botanical, grounded, and connected to the warmth of Mediterranean earth.
