Glidden

Leprechaun

PPG1228-6

Leprechaun is a saturated emerald-green with a blue undertone. It feels bold and clean on a front door, powder room vanity, or accent wall. This green has punch.

Choose white, brass, or dark stained wood for contrast. If used across a whole room, keep the rest of the palette controlled because the color will lead. Small rooms can make it memorable.
