RAL 260 35 10
Smoky Pecan
RAL 260 35 10 Smoky Pecan is defined by hue 260, lightness 35, and a moderate chroma of 10, a muted dark warm orange that carries the dusky warmth of smoked pecan shell and the quiet interior of aged timber barns. It is a natural choice for wine bar interior finishes, heritage joinery details, and artisan workshop wall surfaces. The moderate saturation at this dark level gives it a grounded, organic quality that pairs well with wrought iron, aged oak, and natural stone.
