Valspar

Candle Light

T545

Candle Light is a very warm cream-white with a peachy undertone. The peachy warmth keeps trim from looking cold. Choose it for rooms needing warmth, such as bedrooms, halls, or trim beside tan stone.

The color is bright enough to keep spaces open. It can look too creamy beside cool marble. Warm neutrals and existing white finishes should be sampled together before painting trim.

Candle Light 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.
