RAL 340 40 30

Vivid Antique Gold

RAL 340 40 30 Vivid Antique Gold occupies hue 340, lightness 40, and chroma 30, a bold high-chroma warm gold that captures the electric intensity of antique gold leaf and the vivid glow of molten amber resin. Designers choose it for luxury signage elements, creative brand accent surfaces, and bold architectural feature walls. The strong chroma at moderate-dark lightness delivers a colour that is both opulent and strikingly commanding in any built environment.
