Green Mantle

V062-5

Green Mantle is a dark, softened forest green with a gray-brown undertone. It feels sheltering. The color can anchor built-ins, a fireplace wall, or exterior shutters without reading black.

At LRV 16, it needs lamps if used in a whole room. A satin finish helps the depth look richer on millwork. Pair with stone or warm white paint. In heavy shade, the green may recede into a quiet charcoal.

Green Mantle 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.
