Valspar

Kate's Ring

8002-44G

Kate's Ring is a dark saturated blue with a teal edge. The color reads jewel-like in daylight and much deeper in shade. Exterior doors, bathroom vanities, or a single wall in a bright office can handle it.

On all four walls, it needs pale flooring or substantial trim contrast. Chrome cools the mood. Brass makes the blue richer. Sample it upright first.
