What color is Farrow and Ball Duck Green?
Farrow and Ball Duck Green W55 is a deep, muted green with a softly olive cast and a noticeable greyed quality. Its low-saturation character keeps the color grounded rather than bright, making it especially effective for cabinetry, a library, or a dining room with natural wood furniture. In strong daylight, Duck Green reads as a composed leafy green, while lower light draws out its darker, more shadowed side. Pair it with warm off-whites, aged brass, walnut, and textured linen for contrast, or use it alongside charcoal and black accents for a more graphic scheme.

LRV of Duck Green
Duck Green has an LRV of 8.19% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.19%, 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.
