RAL 340 25 20
Dark Tawny Bronze
RAL 340 25 20 Dark Tawny Bronze occupies hue 340, lightness 25, and chroma 20, a deep saturated warm gold that recalls the concentrated warmth of aged tawny port and the rich interior of old bronze casting moulds. It is ideal for heritage library interior finishes, artisan metalwork coordination, and traditional joinery details. The strong chroma at this dark level gives it a metallic intensity that feels rooted in centuries of goldsmithing craft and architectural tradition.
