Berkshire Lace

PPG1077-1

Use it for softness. Berkshire Lace is a warm cream with a beige-yellow undertone, closer to old linen than paper white. It has the lightness for whole rooms, especially bedrooms, halls, and living rooms with traditional millwork.

In strong sun, it can pick up a warmer biscuit note. Medium oak, aged brass, or mushroom-painted furniture all sit comfortably with it. A cooler gray carpet may make the cream side look more obvious.

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.
