Graceful Green

6001-6C

Graceful Green is a deep olive green with a muted yellow base. The muted olive depth suits cabinetry that needs structure. Use it on cabinetry, exterior trim, or a small office where a natural color should read serious.

The depth needs light trim and steady lamps. Pair with oak or warm limestone. In shaded rooms, the green can turn browner. A satin finish will help the color stay alive on millwork.

Graceful Green 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.
