Spanish Carmine Paint Color
Spanish Carmine is a bold and striking, rich warm red favored by those who wish to make a statement. As a cousin to the more purplish and ruby carmine shades, Spanish Carmine is inspired by the range of reds processed using the historical methods of extraction from cochineal insects. As an energetic, passionate color, Spanish Carmine pairs well with creams, warm neutrals an gray-blues for an eye-catching appearance.
