RAL 4004
Claret Violet
RAL 4004 Claret Violet is a dark, wine-toned violet that exudes formality and timeless elegance. Named after the deep red-purple of claret wine, this color carries centuries of association with wealth and refinement. It is frequently specified for heritage building restoration, formal reception areas, and premium automotive finishes. Claret Violet provides exceptional depth in high-gloss applications and serves as a sophisticated alternative to black in architectural metalwork and ornamental ironwork.
