Ginseng

8002-24G

Ginseng is a deep ocher brown with a mustard-gold center. The mustard-brown depth suits plaster walls and dark wood. Use it for a dining room accent, exterior door, or painted furniture when tan is too safe.

The color needs contrast because the value is deep. Cream plaster and dark wood both suit it. Under warm bulbs, it becomes richer. Near yellow oak, a large sample is essential.

Ginseng 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.
