What color is Farrow and Ball Palm?

Farrow and Ball Palm CC4 is a light, muted green with a noticeable grey cast that keeps it soft rather than leafy or bright. Its low saturation gives walls a gently weathered appearance, reading a little cooler in daylight and more subdued under warm evening lamps. Use it in bedrooms, kitchens, or hallways where a quiet wash of color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Palm pairs well with chalky whites, soft stone, pale oak, and brushed nickel, while darker olive or charcoal accents can give it more definition. It is especially effective across full walls or on cabinetry with simple hardware, where its restrained green tone has room to show.

What are Farrow and Ball Palm undertones?

Palm CC4 reads as a light, muted yellow-green with a soft, low-saturation character rather than a crisp or vivid green. In the supplied digital sample, its visible bias leans slightly more green and yellow than blue, which can make it feel gently earthy rather than minty. There is no official manufacturer undertone description available to confirm or qualify that impression. Warm artificial light may draw out its yellowed side, while cool daylight can make the green cast appear a little clearer.

LRV of Palm

Palm has an LRV of 58.42% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 58.42%, 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.
