What color is Valspar UK Ebony Lake?

Valspar UK Ebony Lake L24bW45d is a deep, muted green with a strong charcoal-grey cast. Its low saturation keeps it earthy rather than bright, making the color read almost black-green in dim corners while its green character becomes clearer in natural daylight. Use it on cabinetry, a study wall, or interior doors where a darker finish can add definition without looking stark. Pale oak, aged brass, warm white paint, and stone or linen in soft beige tones give Ebony Lake a grounded contrast. On larger walls, pair it with good lighting to retain the subtle green-grey detail of this shade.
