Tyrian Plum is a dark, earthy reddish-purple, sophisticated, warm, and full of depth. This rich aubergine tone, which until now had been a complementary color, gains prominence for its elegance and intensity, making it ideal for intimate spaces such as dining rooms or bedrooms, especially those facing north.
It pairs beautifully with neutrals like Country Grey and Old White for a neoclassical style, or with Honfleur, Burgundy, gold leaf, and background shades like Olive or Pale Mallow for a more dramatic look. It also works well with dark greens such as Knightsbridge Green or Coolabah Green.
It takes its name from Tyrian purple, an ancient pigment extracted from sea snails and highly prized for its exclusivity.
