  1. 01Chalk

    RAL 9010 ~ "Pure white" in RAL Classic.

  2. 02Cream

    RAL 9001 ~ "Cream" in RAL Classic.

  3. 03Ivory

    RAL 1015 ~ "Light ivory" in RAL Classic.

  4. 04Sand

    RAL 1014 ~ "Ivory" in RAL Classic.

  5. 05Dune

    RAL 1001 ~ "Beige" in RAL Classic.

what they sit with

In our photo shoots the light neutrals stand out against dark wood and dark walls:

  2. 02Cream against wood

    U·037 in front of a slatted wooden wall; U·021 on a dark console against plaster.

  3. 03Ivory against dark walls

    U·013 on a deep brown wall above a wooden sideboard; U·018 on a dark console by a window.

Questions

Do you make a white sculptural lamp?

Yes. Chalk (RAL 9010) is a clean white, and every U· piece has been photographed in it: the U·013 wall light, the U·016 and U·018 table lamps, the U·021 and U·037 ambient lamps, the U·039, U·044 and U·048 pendants and the U·001 side table.

What is the difference between Chalk, Cream and Ivory?

Chalk is RAL 9010, a clean white. Cream is RAL 9001, a touch warmer. Ivory is RAL 1015, warmer and slightly yellow. Sand (RAL 1014) and Dune (RAL 1001) move on into warm beige.

Why is your Ivory RAL 1015?

RAL Classic calls RAL 1015 "Light ivory" and RAL 1014 "Ivory". Our Ivory is RAL 1015; our Sand is RAL 1014. Quote the RAL code when you order and there is no confusion.

Can you match my wall colour?

Yes. Any RAL Classic or RAL Design code costs the same. For a colour from a paint brand, send us the reference or a photo of the chip and we propose the nearest RAL code before we paint.

Can I see a sample first?

Yes. Ask for a colour sample in any collection colour or RAL code and we post you a painted chip.
