What color is Valspar UK Aquamarine?

Valspar UK Aquamarine X95R179D is a light, muted blue-green with a softly greyed cast that keeps it from looking overly bright. Its cool character reads more blue in lower light, while daylight brings out its gentle aqua-green side. Use it on bedroom or bathroom walls for a clean, airy backdrop, or on painted cabinetry where a quieter alternative to stronger teal is wanted. Crisp white trim sharpens the color, while pale oak, limestone, brushed nickel, and soft charcoal give it a grounded finish.
