What color is Dulux Golden Umber 1?

Dulux Golden Umber 1 10YY 30/560 is a deep, saturated golden-ochre shade with a clear orange cast. Its medium-dark value gives it enough weight for a feature wall, while the strong yellow warmth keeps it from reading as a flat brown. In bright daylight, the color can appear more lively and honeyed; under softer evening lighting, it settles into a richer, earthier amber tone. Use Golden Umber 1 on dining room walls, a painted fireplace surround, or kitchen cabinetry where a bold warm finish is wanted. It pairs well with chalky creams, muted olive greens, dark charcoal, and natural wood, especially oak, walnut, and woven cane.
