Farrow & Ball

Etruscan Red

No. 56

Etruscan Red is a warm, earthy red with noticeable brown undertones that give it a grounded, muted quality. It has an LRV of 36, placing it in the lower-mid range of light reflectance, so it will darken a room considerably and works best where a strong, enclosed feeling is wanted -- dining rooms, studies, or smaller entryways. The brown base keeps it from reading as a bright or saturated red on the wall.

It sits well alongside Farrow & Ball colours like Pointing, Joa's White, Red Earth, Setting Plaster, and Hague Blue.
