Berry Brandy

1005-9B

Berry Brandy is a deep brown-red with a smoky plum cast. Low light makes the plum smolder. Place it in a small dining room, library, or on furniture when black would feel too hard.

On walls, the red undertone stays earthy rather than bright. Warm lamps bring it forward. Pair with cream, leather, or dark bronze. In weak daylight, expect more brown than berry, so sample at full size.
