Celadon

590

Celadon is a vivid seafoam green with balanced blue and green undertones. With an LRV of 64.71, it reflects a moderate amount of light and stays bright without looking pastel. It suits kitchens, baths, or accent walls where a clear blue-green is desired.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Heron or Silver Satin for a light neutral base. Charcoal Slate or Hale Navy add depth, while Chestertown Buff or York Harbor Yellow bring warmth.

Celadon 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.
