What color is Dulux Jewelled Creek 4?

Dulux Jewelled Creek 4 30BG 56/097 is a light, muted blue-green with a noticeable grey cast that keeps it soft rather than bright. Its cool aqua-blue undertone is clearest in daylight, while lower or warmer artificial light can bring forward its gentle grey quality. Use it on bedroom, bathroom, or living-room walls where a pale wash of colour is wanted without making the room feel overly cold. This shade sits well beside chalky white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and natural linen, and it can also make a calm choice for painted cabinetry. Pair it with deeper blue-greys or charcoal accents for definition, or keep the scheme light with off-white and sandy neutral tones.
