RAL 250 70 15

Pale Cream Orange

RAL 250 70 15 Pale Cream Orange is defined by hue 250, lightness 70, and chroma 15, a warm luminous orange with the gentle glow of orange-tinted cream and the soft warmth of sun-warmed limestone. It is specified for bedroom feature walls, spa and wellness interiors, and decorative ceramic glazes where a calming citrus warmth is desired. This pale cream orange tone works harmoniously with natural wood, linen textiles, and matte brass accents.
