What color is Dulux Pamplona Purple 1?

Dulux Pamplona Purple 1 73RB 08/259 is a deep, muted purple with a plum-like cast and a soft greyed quality that keeps it from looking overly bright. Its low-light depth makes it especially effective on a feature wall, built-in cabinetry, or a dining room used mainly in the evening. In daylight, this color can read as a restrained berry purple, while warmer artificial lighting may bring forward its red-violet side. Pair it with warm off-whites, dusty pinks, charcoal, or natural oak to give the shade contrast without making the room feel heavy. Brass hardware, smoked glass, and textured linen are also well suited to its dark, velvety appearance.
