What color is Dulux Golden Bark 4?

Dulux Golden Bark 4 06YY 49/797 is a clear, high-energy golden orange with a strong yellow base and very little mutedness. Its bright saturation makes it read as sunlit and lively on the wall, especially in rooms with generous daylight. In lower or warmer artificial light, Golden Bark 4 can appear fuller and more amber-toned. It is best used for a feature wall, painted furniture, a front door, or kitchen cabinetry rather than across every surface of a small room. Pair this color with soft chalky whites, deep charcoal, warm timber, or matte black metal for contrast that keeps its intensity grounded.
