What color is Valspar UK Victorian Dusk?

Valspar UK Victorian Dusk W34c is a deep blue-charcoal with a distinctly cool, slate-like cast. Its low brightness gives walls a grounded, enveloping look, while the blue in the colour keeps it from reading as flat grey. In daylight, this shade can show a muted blue-grey character; under warm evening lamps, it is likely to appear darker and more charcoal-led. Use it in a study, dining room, hallway, or bedroom where a darker wall colour is welcome. Pair Victorian Dusk with chalky off-whites, pale stone, aged brass, black metal, and natural oak for contrast and texture. It also makes a strong choice for cabinetry or an interior door against lighter surrounding walls.
