What color is Dulux Venetian Crystal 6?

Dulux Venetian Crystal 6 10BB 43/206 is a clear mid-light blue with a cool, gently muted cast. Its blue-green lean keeps it fresher than a powder blue, while the softened saturation prevents it from looking overly bright on large walls. In daylight, this color reads crisp and airy; under warmer artificial lighting, it can appear a little softer and more subdued. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, or a light-filled study, and also makes a clean choice for painted cabinetry or a front door. Pair Venetian Crystal 6 with chalky whites, pale grey, weathered oak, brushed nickel, or deeper navy accents for contrast.
