What color is Little Greene Pearl Colour - Pale?

Little Greene Pearl Colour - Pale 167 is a very light, softly muted off-white with a discernible green-grey cast. Its high brightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the subtle green undertone prevents it from reading as a plain white. In cool daylight, Pearl Colour - Pale can appear cleaner and slightly more silvery; under warm lamps, it takes on a gentler, creamier look without losing its pale green character. It suits bedrooms, kitchens, and softly lit hallways, particularly alongside natural oak, limestone, brushed nickel, and chalky white trim. Use this shade on walls or cabinetry when a quiet, low-contrast backdrop is wanted rather than a crisp white finish.

What are Little Greene Pearl Colour - Pale undertones?

This is a near-white, very muted shade with a soft, low-saturation yellow-green cast in the supplied digital sample. Its undertone is subtle rather than strongly defined, so it can read mainly as an off-white with a faint greenish warmth rather than as an obvious green. No manufacturer undertone description was provided in the available official source. Warm artificial light may bring out its slight yellow warmth, while cool daylight may make the pale green bias a little more noticeable.

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 80.93%, 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.
