What color is Dulux Tin Red?
Dulux Tin Red 30YR 14/365 is a deep, earthy red with clear brown-orange undertones that keep it grounded rather than bright. Its medium-dark value and muted saturation give it the character of aged brick, terracotta clay, or oxidized red earth. In strong daylight, the warmer orange-red notes become more noticeable, while lower light can draw out its darker brown cast. Tin Red makes a confident choice for a dining room, entryway, exterior door, or a single fireplace wall, and it can also give painted cabinetry a substantial, period-inspired look. Pair it with warm off-whites, dusty beige, charcoal, natural oak, blackened metal, and textured linen for a palette with depth and restraint.
