Valspar

Irish Moor

V143-3

Irish Moor behaves like a pale sage-gray carrying a soft green cast. The green side stays quiet. This is a useful choice for bedrooms, baths, and quiet hallways where a neutral needs more life than plain gray.

The green becomes more visible on broad walls beside cool white trim. Warm wood floors help it feel natural. Rooms with green tile need a careful sample so the undertones do not stack awkwardly.

Irish Moor 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.
