Crystal Cut

PR-W13

Crystal Cut is a bright, warm white carrying a faint beige undertone. It feels clean but not icy. Use it where the room needs brightness and a little softness, especially with warm floors or cream fabrics.

In low light, it may read as soft white rather than crisp white. Pair with pale oak, natural linen, or warm stone, and compare it with trim before painting both surfaces.

Crystal Cut in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
