Glidden

Sea Pearl

PPG1136-1

Sea Pearl is a luminous green-gray off-white with a pearly cast. It is very light. The shade can make a bath or bedroom feel fresher than a warm white without turning icy.

Painted out, it may read nearly neutral until placed beside cream. Pair with clean white trim, light stone, or brushed nickel. In a room with little daylight, test broadly because the gray-green note can become flatter.

Sea Pearl 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.
