What color is Dulux Raspberry Ripple?

Dulux Raspberry Ripple 71RR 23/421 is a medium raspberry pink with a muted, slightly dusty cast that keeps its red undertone from feeling overly sweet. It has enough depth to read clearly on a full wall, while daylight brings out its softer rose side. In lower or warmer light, Raspberry Ripple can appear richer and more berry-toned. Use it in a bedroom, dining area, or small sitting room alongside warm white trim, pale oak, linen, and brushed brass. For a sharper contrast, pair this color with charcoal, deep olive, or a blue-based grey on furniture and smaller accents.
