What color is Farrow and Ball Radicchio?
Farrow and Ball Radicchio 96 is a deep, muted red with a noticeable rosy cast and a soft brownish restraint. Its medium-dark value gives walls definition without reading as a bright primary red, while the slight blue influence keeps the color from becoming overly orange. In warm evening light, Radicchio can appear richer and more wine-red; cooler daylight brings out its dustier rose-red side. It has enough depth for a dining room, snug, or dramatic hallway, and also makes handsome painted cabinetry or an accent wall. Pair it with warm off-whites, pale putty neutrals, dark wood, aged brass, and natural linen for a grounded interior.

What are Farrow and Ball Radicchio undertones?
Radicchio is a mid-depth, softly saturated crimson-red with clear color presence rather than the sharp intensity of a pure red. In the supplied digital sample, its red base carries a slight yellow bias, which can make it read warmer and a little earthier than a blue-leaning crimson. Farrow & Ball describes it as a “modern crimson” with energy but without the brashness of a true, clean red, which aligns with its visibly softened red character. Warm artificial light may bring forward its warmer red notes, while cool daylight can make the color appear clearer and slightly less warm.
