What color is Dulux Fire Cracker 1?
Dulux Fire Cracker 1 95RR 07/271 is a very deep red with a browned, wine-like cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. In clear daylight, its muted crimson character comes through more clearly, while evening light can make it read closer to dark oxblood or red-brown. This shade suits a dining room, library, or snug where its density can create a strong backdrop without relying on a pure black. Use it on a single wall, lower cabinetry, or painted woodwork alongside warm off-whites, aged brass, walnut, and natural linen. Fire Cracker 1 also pairs well with dusty pinks and clay-toned neutrals that pick up its underlying warmth.
