reddishgold

Reddishgold is a descriptive color term used to describe a warm, metallic hue that blends elements of gold with red undertones. It sits between golden yellow and coppery orange, producing a spectrum that can read as amber with a reddened cast or as a copper-gold. There is no single standardized shade for reddishgold; the exact appearance depends on pigment, lighting, and the color system used.

In digital media, reddishgold occupies the warm end of the spectrum, typically represented by high red and yellow values with a touch of brown or orange. In print, recreating reddishgold requires a mix of yellow and red inks, sometimes with a small amount of black or brown to anchor the tone. The perceived shade can shift with saturation, metallic effects, or varnish.

Reddishgold is used in art, design, and fashion to convey warmth, luxury, and antiquity. It appears in painting and decorative finishes, jewelry, packaging, and cosmetics. The color is common in autumn palettes and in seasonal branding where a rich, opulent effect is desired.

It should not be confused with rose gold or true copper. As a descriptive color term, reddishgold encompasses a range of closely related hues rather than a single, official pigment standard. See also: gold, copper, rose gold.
