Valspar

Pirates Treasure

3006-5B

Valspar Pirates Treasure is a warm golden ocher, like aged brass crossed with caramel. It can bring life to a dining nook, pantry, or painted furniture piece. The orange base warms it.

The mid depth keeps the color bold but usable. Pair with cream, dark green, or black metal, and be careful around yellow oak. Porch shade can brown it. Wood tone matters here.
