What color is Valspar UK Emerald Temple?

Valspar UK Emerald Temple R247A is a deep, muted green with a cool, slightly blue-leaning cast visible in its #2d5e3e value. Its mid-low brightness gives it a grounded presence, making it particularly effective in rooms with ample daylight or layered artificial lighting. On walls, Emerald Temple can give a study, dining room, or hallway a more enclosed, considered feel without reading black. Pair it with warm off-whites, pale oak, aged brass, or terracotta-toned ceramics to bring out a warmer contrast. It also has enough depth for kitchen cabinetry, a painted bookcase, or a front door where a solid green accent is wanted.
