Fire Agate

T503

Fire Agate is a dark oxblood red with a browned berry undertone. The browned oxblood base wants sheen, not a chalky flat finish. Place it on a front door, cabinet piece, or paneled bar when red needs depth instead of brightness.

The low lightness means it will absorb a lot of daylight. Set it beside cream trim or aged brass. In matte paint, scuffs can show quickly. A smoother sheen is smarter for handled surfaces.

Fire Agate in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
