Burnt Sienna

1196 / HC-49

Burnt Sienna is a warm rust color with red, orange, and brown undertones. Its LRV of 17.37 places it in the dark mid-tone range and it reads strong on walls. It suits dining rooms, entryways, or accent areas where warm earth tones are needed.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Chantilly Lace for light contrast. Hale Navy, Forest Green, or Terra Cotta reinforce depth or adjacent warmth. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.
