Chocolate Sundae

2113-10

Chocolate Sundae is a very dark brown with a subtle violet undertone. Its LRV of 6.92 indicates heavy light absorption and near-black depth. It is best reserved for small rooms, accent walls, or cabinetry where a dark finish is required for contrast.

Swiss Coffee and Revere Pewter provide lighter neutral balance. White Dove offers crisp trim, and Hale Navy can deepen the adjacent palette when needed.
