Burgundy & Oxblood Kitchen Cabinets: RAL Codes, Pairings & Design Guide

MARCH 25, 2026  ◆  3 MIN READ
IN SHORT

Oxblood is the connoisseur's dark: RAL 3005 satin on a bar or library run with brass is the reference use.

The deep reds returned via wine bars and libraries — leather-rich, candlelight-made, unapologetically evening colours. In satin they read heritage; in gloss, decadent.

The exact RAL codes to spec

Colour names drift between suppliers; RAL codes do not. These are the three we mix most for burgundy & oxblood cabinet projects:

RAL 3005Wine Red
RAL 3007Black Red
RAL 3009Oxide Red

Every code sprays in super-matte through high gloss; approve the sprayed sample in your room's light before production — sheen shifts colour a half-step.

What to pair it with

Burgundy & Oxblood performs best beside polished brass, smoked glass, dark walnut, cream relief. Keep undertone temperature consistent across counters, metals and floors and the scheme locks together on its own.

Where it works best

Specify burgundy & oxblood for bars, libraries, powder rooms, statement islands. For dosing strategies — island-only colour, two-tone splits — see the two-tone formulas guide.

Door designs to carry it

The colour reads differently by profile: on our Camellia, Bella designs it shows its full range from calm to characterful. All are lacquered to order in any code above — browse the gallery for the complete set.

The mistake to avoid

Daylight exposes cheap-red undertones — insist on the sprayed sample at noon before loving it at night.

Matte and satin carry most schemes; sheen shifts the colour a half-step, so approve colour and sheen together on one sample.
