Valspar

Blown Glass

8003-39A

Blown Glass is a very pale blue-green with a clean, glassy cast. It is bright. It brings freshness to bathrooms, laundry rooms, and ceilings without announcing itself too loudly.

Across broader walls, the aqua note appears beside cream trim or warm wood. Crisp white keeps the effect clearer. Yellowed tile needs careful testing because the cool tint may look less polished.

Blown Glass 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.
