Valspar

Ch-teau Mantle

V085-6

Chteau Mantle is a dark burnt umber with a brick-red base. It has old plaster and wood-beam energy rather than clean brown. A front door, fireplace surround, or cabinet run gives the earthy note a clear job.

The low value will absorb light, so full walls need sconces or lamps. Pair with limestone, cream trim, or aged brass. Too much orange oak nearby can make the color feel heavy.

Ch-teau Mantle 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.
