Valspar

Dried Bay Leaf

8003-28F

Dried Bay Leaf lands in deep olive yellow with a browned herbal undertone. The low LRV makes the herbal brown side important. This shade can ground a study, mudroom, or cabinet color when forest green feels too cool.

Cream trim keeps it from turning harsh. Aged brass sits naturally beside it. In weak light, the brown side grows stronger, so add lamps before using it broadly.

Dried Bay Leaf 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.
