Cocoa Berry

V128-5

Cocoa Berry is a dark mauve brown with a smoky red undertone. It can behave like a muted plum-taupe in bedrooms or powder rooms, especially with warm lighting. The color needs pale contrast to avoid turning muddy.

Use it on furniture, paneling, or a small room rather than a wide open area. Pair with ivory, aged brass, or dark wood. Cool gray finishes will make the berry side more noticeable.
