What color is Valspar UK River Deep?

Valspar UK River Deep X105R200A is a deep, muted blue-grey with a noticeably cool cast. Its restrained saturation keeps it from reading as bright navy, giving walls a grounded, architectural look instead. In daylight, the blue character is clearer, while lower or warmer artificial light can bring out its charcoal-grey side. It suits studies, dining rooms, hallways, and north-facing spaces where a darker colour can add definition. Pair River Deep with soft off-whites, pale stone, weathered oak, brushed nickel, or warm brass for contrast. It also makes a strong choice for cabinetry, internal doors, or a single accent wall.
