#8e3537 - Well Read color

This deep, muted burgundy leans toward a tobacco-red with brown undertones, producing a rich, earthy crimson. It feels warm, sophisticated and slightly vintage—like aged leather, red-wine stains, or autumn mahogany. In interiors or fashion it reads as an elegant accent that grounds lighter palettes and pairs beautifully with cream, navy, olive, or metallic gold. Use it to convey intimacy, warmth, and timeless refinement rather than vibrant energy; it works best for moody, cozy, or classic designs.
