Valspar

Love Crystal

V074-1

Love Crystal is a pale blue-leaning gray with a cool, clear undertone. The blue cast stays quiet. Use it in bedrooms, baths, ceilings, or laundry spaces where pale blue should stay refined.

Against white tile, the blue shows more. Warm wood softens the coolness. In low daylight, it may look closer to a cool off-white. Let the supporting finishes stay close to brushed nickel or simple white trim.

Love Crystal 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.
