    HG red color?

    I am looking at ordering another quilt and I always choose different colors. This time I am look at red. Can anyone with a premium red tell me which color is closer to reality?

    I am having trouble uploading the picture, I will try later at home. This Pic I was posting is the red exterior with black inside from the order option page vs the main screen that looks like a really vibrant almost metallic red.FB_IMG_1688379769635.jpg

    Hey there Billcole. I wish I had a better way of describing the brick red. It not NOT a loud color. I would love to use the term "sexy" but that might be a little overboard. lol. I will say that the 10D brick red can sometimes look a little lighter(brighter) because it is a thinner material and the light colored down insulation can make it appear a different shade than the 20d material. If that makes sense.

    Stormcrow has it exactly right. I have a premium Burrow topquilt in brick red and it's a fairly muted, low intensity color. The photo on the right is much closer to how that color looks in real life.

    Thank you for chiming in on this one Canadark. Colors are such a tricky thing to convey digitally....
