Valspar

Hatters Plush

M237

Hatters Plush reads as blackened plum-purple with a smoky gray base. The blackened violet needs pale stone or strong lighting to show its richness. A powder room or built-in bar can carry the depth as the feature.

LRV 8 means it will absorb light quickly. Satin or gloss helps the color stay alive on trim and cabinets. Creamy whites may bring out the purple. Black accents make it moodier, so add pale stone if the space feels closed in.

Hatters Plush 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.
