What color is Dulux Golden Fern 2?

Dulux Golden Fern 2 29YY 66/537 is a clear, sunlit golden yellow with a warm, softly orange-leaning cast. Its light value keeps the color buoyant rather than heavy, while the strong saturation gives it real presence on a wall or painted focal area. In bright daylight, Golden Fern 2 reads as cheerful and luminous; under warmer evening lighting, its honeyed quality becomes more noticeable. It can bring energy to kitchens, breakfast rooms, children’s spaces, or a front door, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, natural rattan, and matte black details. For a quieter scheme, temper this shade with warm off-whites, muted clay tones, or soft olive greens.
