Red Ochre

Red Ochre is a deep, earthy shade that draws inspiration from the colour of Mars. Used by artists since the 17th century, it was originally created by allowing iron to oxidise into rust. Today, it retains a natural quality with a feeling of substance.

THE STORY OF Red Ochre

The quiet glow of Mars observed from planet Earth. Paprika scattered over a plate of food. A red-brick townhouse softened by the elements. The warmth of terracotta pots baking in the Mediterranean sunshine. With an earthy quality, Red Ochre complements raw materials – wood, stone, linen – while warming up any space in your home. Lived-in but naturally luxurious.
