So you can see this is the effect if I remove the blue/cyan reflected from the outside I've put it side by side with the original. Without it we invariably boost saturation to get back what we process out. To negate the differences that are natural and really govern then way we see the world with all the depth and colour it offers. It's also what I talk about a lot on this forum, the way we as digital photographers use the tools at our disposal to equalise the values within our images. We commonly see this and are used to it even if you don't always realise it. It's the contrast between the cool and warm colours that works, and as I said before is completely natural because the reflective surfaces naturally reflect the light from the blue sky outside. It's actually the cool of the very slight blue/cyan against the slight warm colours of the wood that bring the colours out (the overall colour balance is still considerably on the warm side). It was blue sky outside and it's steel, so the slight colour is natural, it's also quite low saturation (35-40% max), but then the saturation of the colours in the wood has also been kept deliberately natural and low.
