Raspberry Patch reads as warm and personal — works in bedrooms, nurseries, and any space where softness and warmth are the goal. At LRV 14 it reads as a deep, enveloping shade — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. Skip it as a whole-room color in spaces meant to feel neutral or understated — it reads soft and personal, best as an accent.

Raspberry Patch Technical Profile

What color is Dunn-Edwards Raspberry Patch (DET418)? It's a deep warm pink — hex #A34F66, LRV 14. The closest cross-brand equivalent to Raspberry Patch is Dutch Boy Harmony Red — a near-identical match on the wall, with Dutch Boy Artesian Plum and Sherwin-Williams Ruby Shade also close. With an LRV of 14, Raspberry Patch creates a dramatic, enveloping mood — best on accent walls, dining rooms, and intimate spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. Pair it with warm whites like Simply White, blonde wood floors, and brass or gold hardware. Deep green or forest accents add contrast that keeps it from feeling too sweet. At mid saturation, this color sits at a flexible mid-point — bold enough to anchor a room without dominating, and pairs cleanly with both crisp and creamy whites. Under 2700K warm bulbs pinks and magentas glow warmly, leaning coral. Under 4000K cool light they read more vibrant — important for nursery and bedroom planning where bulb choice changes the mood. At mid saturation the lighting shift is moderate but real — sample under both warm-bulb evening light and cool-daylight morning light before committing.

Raspberry Patch — Frequently Asked Questions

What colors match Raspberry Patch from other brands?
The closest cross-brand equivalents to Raspberry Patch are Harmony Red by Dutch Boy (a near-identical match), Artesian Plum by Dutch Boy (a near-identical match), Ruby Shade by Sherwin-Williams (a very close match). These are ranked with the CIEDE2000 color-difference formula, which scores how similar two colors actually look to the eye rather than matching them by name — so they're the best options for getting Raspberry Patch's look in a brand your local store carries. Always confirm with a physical sample, since sheen and lighting shift the final result.
What is the LRV of Raspberry Patch?
Raspberry Patch has a Light Reflectance Value (LRV) of 14.3, on a scale where 0 is pure black and 100 is pure white. That makes it a deep, dramatic color best saved for accent walls, dining rooms, and cozy spaces where atmosphere matters more than reflected light. LRV is the most reliable guide to how light or dark a paint will read in a real room — more dependable than the swatch on your screen, which varies by monitor.
