What color is Valspar UK Spring Pea?

Valspar UK Spring Pea X135R279A is a deep, muted green-grey with a subtle blue cast, closely reflected in its #485755 color value. Its low saturation gives it a softened, almost charcoal-like presence rather than a bright botanical green. In daylight, Spring Pea can read as a restrained blue-green, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its darker grey side. It suits studies, dining rooms and fitted cabinetry where a grounded, shadowy color is wanted without using black. Pair it with chalky off-whites, pale stone, aged brass and natural oak to bring contrast and warmth around the shade.
