Valspar

Mystic Sea

5007-7A

Mystic Sea is a light aqua with a soft green center, closer to sea glass than baby blue. Green keeps it gentle. This shade can freshen a bath or sunlit breakfast area without turning loud.

White tile makes the color cleaner. Warm woods give it a casual coastal direction. In north-facing spaces, it may lose some sparkle and look more like a pale mint-gray.

Mystic Sea 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.
