Alice White

MQ3-58

Alice White is a light blue-gray near-white with a cool, misted cast. It is airy but not warm. A good home is a bath or hallway where a hint of color is welcome.

The shade pairs naturally with chrome and white tile. Warm oak floors can make the blue more visible. In a dim room, expect it to read as a soft cool gray.
