Butternut Tree

3002-5B

Butternut Tree is a warm coppery tan with an orange-brown base. It feels autumnal. The color can ground a study, mudroom, or exterior accent without going as dark as chocolate.

Dark bronze and olive green bring out its practical side. It may feel too warm beside cool gray flooring. In western light, the orange side gets stronger and more rustic.
