What color is Dulux Cygnet Feather?
Dulux Cygnet Feather 21YY 45/060 is a muted mid-tone greige with a noticeable beige cast and a soft greyed finish. Its #B7AFA4 colour value keeps the shade restrained rather than heavily brown, giving walls gentle definition without making a room feel dark. In warm artificial light, Cygnet Feather can read more taupe-beige, while cooler daylight brings out its quieter grey character. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and fitted cabinetry, particularly alongside off-white trim, natural oak, linen fabrics, and brushed brass details. For contrast, pair this color with deep charcoal, warm black, or earthy olive accents.

What are Dulux Cygnet Feather undertones?
Cygnet Feather is a mid-light, very muted muted beige. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.
