Glitzy Gold

SW 6691

Glitzy Gold is a vibrant yellow with a strong golden undertone, registering an LRV of 39 that places it in the moderate reflectance range. Its saturated character makes it effective as an accent wall color in dining rooms, entryways, or creative workspaces where visual impact is needed. It coordinates with Friendly Yellow and Full Moon for a layered warm scheme with tonal variation.

Naval provides a deep complementary contrast, Tricorn Black adds sharp definition on doors or hardware, and Alabaster on trim keeps transitions clean and structured.
