#6E1C17 sits at 3° on the color wheel, placing it in the red family of the warm half of the spectrum. With 65% saturation and 26% lightness, it reads as a richly saturated, shadowed tone — a weighted, dramatic presence with deep undertones. Its RGB mix of 110, 28, 23 produces a 11.40:1 contrast ratio against white, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #6E1C17 is a clear variant of CSS maroon — about 40 units away from #800000. Designers reach for red hues at this saturation when the brief calls for a conversational, mid-energy register, and at this lightness when they want weight, depth, and grounded contrast. On screen the warm cast tends to pair best with cool neutrals around 210°-230° to balance temperature.
