What color is Dulux Toasted Truffle?
Dulux Toasted Truffle 00YY 21/321 is a medium-depth earthy brown with a clear warm, orange-gold cast. Its #9E7043 value gives it the look of sun-baked clay or aged leather rather than a dark chocolate brown. In bright daylight, Toasted Truffle can show more of its tawny warmth, while lower light draws out its grounded brown base. It suits dining rooms, studies, and hallways where a deeper wall color can add definition without reading nearly black. Pair it with creamy off-whites, muted olive greens, natural oak, linen, and brushed brass, or use it on cabinetry and trim for a warmer contrast against pale walls.
