Vermilion is a dark, slightly dull shade of reddish-orange, about halfway between red and orange with a bit of gray mixed in. It is a common shade for bricks.

The reddish hue and slight dullness distinguish this shade from a more yellow-orange amber. Brick is an example rather than a material requirement. The hex triplet is a comparison sample for a range of similar facade colors, rather than an exact-match requirement.
