Benjamin Moore Dragons Blood CW-320 is a deep, earthy red with pronounced terracotta-orange warmth. Its muted richness keeps it from reading as a bright primary red, giving the color a grounded, clay-like character. In strong daylight, Dragons Blood can show more of its warm orange-red side, while lower light emphasizes its darker, burnished depth. It makes a confident choice for a dining room, study, front door, or built-in cabinetry, especially when paired with creamy off-whites, warm wood, aged brass, and natural linen. For a more graphic look, use this shade against charcoal accents or dark stained oak.
