Valspar

Grassy Cliff

8004-22F

Grassy Cliff comes across as deep olive brown with a muted gold undertone. The muted gold undertone belongs with aged wood. Use it on built-ins, a den wall, or exterior shutters where weight is useful.

The color looks best with warm white trim plus dark metal. Without much daylight, it can lean more brown than green. Keep adjacent fabrics lighter so the room does not feel too heavy.
