Burnt Sienna

#ae5224

Burnt Sienna is the roasted version of the Siena earth pigment, and here it reads as a deep rust orange with strong yellow and red values. It resembles cinnamon bark or brick dust. Apricot Yellow brightens it into a harvest palette, Diamine Green adds a forest-like depth, and Eosine Pink makes an unexpected, lively pairing. White text on Burnt Sienna reaches 5.2:1, comfortably legible for body copy, so it can serve as a button or banner color as well as a background. It is natural on leather, pottery, autumn textiles and book covers.
