Valspar

Cornwall

8002-43E

Cornwall is a deep teal blue with a clear green undertone. It has enough strength for a front door, bath vanity, or accent wall in a room with pale trim. Away from windows, the color will look moodier.

Use it with warm white, natural oak, or brushed brass for balance. Avoid crowding it with several other blues. One strong blue-green is usually enough in a small room.

Cornwall 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.
