Valspar

Berry Blush

1004-1A

Berry Blush is a deep raspberry red with a browned undertone. Brown undertones keep the raspberry grown-up. This shade works on a lacquered door, powder room, or dining room accent where richness is welcome.

LRV 14 means it will darken quickly on broad walls. Cream trim gives it a softer edge than stark white. Pair with aged brass or dark walnut. Keep nearby pinks quiet so the shade stays sophisticated.
