What color is Little Greene China Clay - Deep?
Little Greene China Clay - Deep 177 is a muted, light-to-mid neutral with a noticeable rosy beige cast. Its #dac2b4 value gives it soft warmth without reading overtly pink, making it especially suited to rooms that need more character than a standard cream. In bright daylight, this color can appear gently peach-tinged, while lower or warmer lighting draws out its deeper clay-like beige notes. Use China Clay - Deep on bedroom or living room walls alongside chalky whites, warm greys, natural oak, linen, and aged brass. It also has enough depth for cabinetry or a painted hallway when paired with lighter trim.
LRV of China Clay - Deep
China Clay - Deep has an LRV of 57.42% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 57.42%, 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.
