Valspar

Ice Sculpture

5001-7B

Ice Sculpture is a medium-light aqua-blue with clean, cool saturation. The clear aqua-blue body suits porch ceilings and vanities that need color without darkness. The color can enliven a bathroom vanity, laundry room, or porch ceiling without going dark.

Across an entire room, it may look brighter because the blue reflects around the space. Pair with crisp white and pale maple. Creamy yellow trim needs testing before it goes beside this color. Cool daylight will emphasize the icy side.

Ice Sculpture 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.
