What color is Dulux Maraschino Mocha 1?

Dulux Maraschino Mocha 1 50RR 06/057 is a deep, muted reddish brown with a noticeable plum-grey cast. Its low-light value gives it a grounded, enveloping look, especially on a full wall in a dining room, study, or bedroom. In bright daylight, the red-violet undertone is more apparent; under warm lamps, it reads closer to a softened cocoa brown. Maraschino Mocha 1 suits cabinetry, interior doors, and accent walls where a dark colour can add definition without looking black. Pair it with chalky off-whites, warm taupe, dusty rose, aged brass, walnut, or linen upholstery for a layered finish.
