RAL 360 65 15

Pale Rose Quartz

RAL 360 65 15 Pale Rose Quartz occupies hue 360, lightness 65, and chroma 15, a luminous warm deep red that captures the gentle warmth of rose quartz crystal and the soft glow of late-afternoon sunlight on pink sandstone. It is a natural choice for Mediterranean-inspired interior schemes, boutique hotel lobby finishes, and artisan ceramic glaze coordination. The balanced chroma and elevated lightness produce a colour that feels sun-warmed, inviting, and effortlessly elegant.
