Valspar

Kabuki Clay

3003-8C

Kabuki Clay is a light cream with a peach-beige undertone. It feels warm and powdery. The color can soften bedrooms, nurseries, or rooms with older ivory trim.

In sun, it may show more clay than cream. Ground it with warm stone or pale oak. Cool marble can make the peach base look more pronounced beside blue-gray veining, so sample carefully.

Kabuki Clay 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.
