What color is Valspar UK Shady Lane?

Valspar UK Shady Lane X142R276A is a deep, muted green with a pronounced grey cast and a restrained olive undertone. Its low saturation keeps it from feeling overly earthy, giving the color a quiet, shadowed appearance that can read almost charcoal-green in dim rooms. In brighter natural light, the green becomes clearer while retaining its softened, weathered quality. Use Shady Lane on cabinetry, a study wall, or exterior woodwork where a darker finish can add definition without looking stark. It pairs well with warm off-whites, stone, aged brass, pale oak, and textured linen.
