Valspar

Parrot Feather

V057-5

Valspar Parrot Feather is a deep olive gold, earthy and stronger than a typical sage. Use it where the color can be deliberate, such as a powder room vanity, interior door, or built in bar. The yellow base keeps it warm.

Since its deep value means walls need contrast from lighter trim or stone. It pairs well with bronze and tobacco leather.

Parrot Feather 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.
