Farrow & Ball

Fox Red

No. 48

Fox Red by Farrow & Ball is a warm, earthy red with brown undertones and a hex value of #AA725D. Its LRV of 48.8 places it below the midpoint for reflectance, so it will noticeably darken a room and works best in spaces with good natural light or as an accent. It is well suited to dining rooms, studies, or feature walls in living areas where a rich but grounded warmth is appropriate.

Compatible Farrow & Ball colors include India Yellow, Tanner's Brown, Hague Blue, Wimborne White, and Pointing, which offer both tonal harmony and contrast.
