: reddish is perfect - meaning any other colour (purple/brown, etc) with a red tinge, making it look somewhat red

Bubo Coroman (X)
: you can also put "a cup that is red or of a similar colour to red" but your version is better because much shorter. "red-looking" is not accurate because it does not refer strictly to the colour of the cup. "similar al rojo" implies e.g. flame orange.
