What color is Little Greene Dark Lead Colour?
Little Greene Dark Lead Colour 118 is a deep, muted grey with a gently warm, earthy cast rather than a sharp blue tone. Its #6d6a65 value gives it a softened charcoal appearance, with subtle brown-beige notes that keep the color from feeling flat. In bright daylight, Dark Lead Colour can read as a restrained mid-to-dark neutral, while lower or warmer light brings out its slightly smoky, taupe-like character. It suits studies, dining rooms, hallways, and cabinetry where a grounded darker shade is wanted without using near-black. Pair it with chalky off-whites, natural oak, aged brass, linen, and stone finishes for a calm, material-led scheme.

LRV of Dark Lead Colour
Dark Lead Colour has an LRV of 14.66% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 14.66%, 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.
