What color is Dulux Amethyst Falls 1?

Dulux Amethyst Falls 1 10RB 08/125 is a deep blue-violet with a noticeably muted, charcoal-like cast. Its low lightness makes it read almost slate grey in dim rooms, while clearer daylight brings out the restrained purple-blue tone. Amethyst Falls 1 has enough depth for a study, dining room, or bedroom feature wall, and it can also give painted cabinetry a grounded, contemporary look. Pair this color with soft off-whites, pale grey stone, brushed nickel, or light oak to keep the scheme from becoming too heavy. Against warmer metals or natural linen, its cool undertone becomes more apparent.
