What color is Valspar UK Green Curry?

Valspar UK Green Curry X118R238C is a muted yellow-green with a soft, mid-light appearance and a noticeable olive cast. Its #a3ba73 value keeps the color gently earthy rather than bright, making it especially suited to kitchen cabinetry, garden-facing rooms, or a painted feature wall. In strong daylight, the green reads clearer and fresher, while lower or warmer lighting brings forward its yellowed, leafy undertone. Pair Green Curry with warm white trim, natural oak, rattan, and brushed brass for a grounded scheme, or add charcoal and deep brown for more contrast.
