Glidden

Bleeding Heart

PPG1185-5

Coral carries the color. Bleeding Heart is a clear coral pink with a warm red base. Use it in a powder room, closet, or on painted furniture where charm is welcome and subtlety is not the goal.

The lightness is moderate, so it will show strongly even in small doses. Warm white, cane, or antique brass can temper it. Blue-gray neighbors can make it look extra rosy.
