Valspar

Blue Jay Crest

P031

Blue Jay Crest is a saturated teal-blue with real depth. The color does not whisper. It works best as a feature color on a door, vanity, island, or bookcase, where surrounding surfaces can give it contrast.

LRV 9 means it will turn shadowy without decent light. White grout, clear glass, or light maple keeps the color looking intentional rather than heavy.

Blue Jay Crest 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.
