What color is Behr Glazed Pot?
Behr Glazed Pot PPU3-15 is a medium, earthy clay brown with clear warm orange and muted red undertones. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading too bright, giving walls a grounded, sun-baked look rather than a sharp terracotta effect. In direct afternoon light, Glazed Pot can show more of its warm cinnamon character, while lower or cooler light brings out its brown, clay-like depth. It suits dining rooms, entryways, and powder rooms where a deeper warm color can add definition without turning overly dark. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm beige textiles, natural oak, aged brass, or charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Glazed Pot
Glazed Pot has an LRV of 22.14% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 22.14%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
