Light Red Ochre Color 524 - #E97451

Ochre, also spelled ocher, is a natural earth pigment containing hydrated iron oxide, which ranges in color from yellow to deep orange or brown. It is also the name of the colors produced by this pigment, especially a light brownish-yellow. A variant of ochre containing a large amount of hematite, or dehydrated iron oxide, has a reddish tint known as "red ochre."

Red ochre takes its reddish color from the mineral hematite, which is a dehydrated iron oxide.
