Valspar

Cali Lily

V039-5

Cali Lily is a muted plum-mauve with a gray-brown base. It feels dusky. Use it in a powder room, bedroom accent, or painted cabinet when a soft purple should feel grown up.

Lighter trim keeps the depth usable. Walnut and aged brass make the mauve feel richer. Cool daylight can bring out the violet side quickly on full walls.

Cali Lily 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.
