What color is Dulux Deep Aubergine?
Dulux Deep Aubergine 13RR 06/179 is a very dark, red-leaning purple with a muted plum cast. Its low lightness gives it a dense, enveloping appearance, while the burgundy undertone keeps it from reading as a flat charcoal. In daylight, Deep Aubergine can show more of its wine-purple character; at night or in shadow, it appears closer to near-black with a coloured edge. It has enough depth for a dining room, study, or dramatic bedroom wall, and also suits painted cabinetry where a strong contrast is wanted. Pair it with warm off-whites, dusty pinks, natural oak, aged brass, or brown-toned stone to draw out its red-violet warmth.
