Valspar

Autumn Grove

8003-27E

Autumn Grove is earthy olive-brown, warmed by a muted gold base. It feels woodland, not bright green. This shade anchors built-ins, a study wall, or exterior trim when a brown would feel too plain.

Weak light makes it heavier and more brown. Cream walls and natural oak bring the olive back. Very cool gray can drain the warmth, so compare before pairing.
