What color is Valspar UK Nautical Nights?

Valspar UK Nautical Nights R167A is a deep blue-green with a distinctly cool, teal-leaning character. Its saturated mid-to-dark tone gives walls clear definition without reading as near-black. In daylight, the green notes are likely to feel more visible, while lower or warmer artificial light can draw out its inky blue side. Use it in a dining room, study, or cloakroom for a strong enveloping backdrop, or apply it to kitchen cabinetry for a more focused hit of color. Crisp off-white, pale stone, warm oak, brushed brass, and natural linen provide a useful contrast to this shade’s cool depth.
