Valspar

Deep Walnut

2004-9A

Deep Walnut is a dark brown with red-orange warmth, close to stained wood. The warmth shows clearly. Deep Walnut suits doors, trim, furniture, or a den accent when black feels too severe.

At LRV 8, it needs nearby light colors to keep definition. Cream walls and aged metal are natural partners. Let the ceiling color sit beside Deep Walnut before painting.

Deep Walnut 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.
