#C85D1E Hex Color

#c85d1e pairs well with deep navy, charcoal, and cream for strong contrast. Cooler tones like teal also balance its warmth. Use it as an accent on dark backgrounds to keep it from overwhelming a layout.

Black text is the better choice on #c85d1e. Contrast reaches about 5.0:1, which passes WCAG AA for normal body text. White text falls well short of that threshold and should be avoided for small type.
