Valspar

Amelia

V040-3

Amelia is a soft medium pink with a cool mauve undertone. Mauve undertones suit shaded vanities. A dressing room, powder bath, or bedroom can carry it with grown-up materials instead of sugary accents.

Warm bulbs pull it toward rose. Cool daylight reveals more violet. Ivory trim softens it. Dark wood or brushed brass adds weight. Gray flooring needs a sample check so the pink still looks fresh.

Amelia 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.
