Valspar

Enchanted Navy

4010-8

Enchanted Navy is a blackened navy with a cool slate base. Navy reads first. It belongs on cabinetry, exterior shutters, or a dramatic bedroom wall where the space can handle depth.

This color absorbs light quickly, so use real lamps and a sample board. Soft white trim gives a cleaner edge than cream. Leather or brass adds needed warmth. Sample in satin.

Enchanted Navy 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.
