Valspar

Burnished Gold

V050-2

Burnished Gold is a warm golden apricot with a honeyed center. The glow stays soft. It can warm a breakfast area, entry, or painted furniture piece without going full orange.

Since it is fairly light, it reflects warmth onto nearby whites. Ivory trim and wood keep the finish relaxed and sunny. Cool gray tile may make the gold feel sharper.

Burnished Gold 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.
