RAL 250 65 10
Faded Caramel
RAL 250 65 10 Faded Caramel occupies hue 250, lightness 65, and a low chroma of 10, a soft muted mid-light tone that captures the weathered warmth of old caramel-tinted plaster and the gentle blush of warm sandstone. It is a natural choice for Mediterranean-inspired interior schemes, heritage facade restoration, and artisan ceramic glaze coordination. The restrained saturation gives it a timeless, sun-worn quality that pairs beautifully with olive wood, wrought iron, and natural linen.
