Vintage Ribbon

S540-4

Vintage Ribbon mixes muted periwinkle blue-gray with a violet undertone. It feels soft but definite. Bedrooms, offices, and laundry rooms can use it when gray needs personality.

The color stays comfortably light, so it will not feel heavy on all walls. White trim and brushed silver keep the palette clean. Warm beige furnishings can mute the blue, which may help if a quieter result is desired.

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.
