What color is Dulux Venetian Crystal 2?

Dulux Venetian Crystal 2 10BB 09/250 is a deep blue-teal with a distinctly cool cast and strong color presence. Its dark value gives it weight on a wall, while the green-blue balance keeps it from reading as a straightforward navy. In bright daylight, this shade can show its clearer teal character; under warm artificial light, it is likely to appear deeper and more muted. Use Venetian Crystal 2 on a feature wall, built-in cabinetry, or a front door where its saturation can be appreciated without overwhelming a room. Crisp white trim, pale grey stone, brushed nickel, light oak, and soft sand-toned textiles provide useful contrast.
