What color is Dulux Rich Havana 2?

Dulux Rich Havana 2 90YR 16/406 is a deep, earthy orange-brown with clear rust and terracotta undertones. Its medium-dark depth gives walls a grounded look, while the concentrated color keeps it from reading as a neutral brown. In bright daylight, the warm orange cast is more noticeable; lower, warmer lighting draws out its smoky brown side. Use Rich Havana 2 on a dining-room wall, a snug study, or painted cabinetry where its weight can anchor pale plaster, cream linen, and natural wood. It also pairs well with charcoal metal, aged brass, and muted olive accents.
