Curly Willow

P086

Curly Willow is a deep golden brown, similar to aged wicker or tobacco leaf. Curly Willow has weight. It works best on built-ins, interior doors, and compact rooms with good lamplight.

With LRV 17, it will not behave like a casual tan. Cream walls and woven textures keep the finish approachable. A brushout will show whether Curly Willow needs more contrast.
