Black Duck Black

Is there a paint out there in a quart size or less that's a good match for black duck black? I mixed up some burnt umber and some ultramarine blue to make a swatch but Home Depot and Sherwin Williams can't match it. Theirs comes out with a red/purple hue. Any suggestions?

Grace and peace,

If using acrylics, two parts burnt umber to one part ultramarine blue. You might try with oil, also[;)]
