Valspar

Polished Ivory

7006-6

Valspar Polished Ivory is a bright ivory cream with a warm yellow center. It works in traditional rooms, kitchens, and hallways that need light without coldness. The cream reads clean.

Because it reflects a lot of light, the shade can cover large areas easily. Use creamy trim with honey oak or honed limestone, and avoid icy gray finishes. Test it against sample boards.

Polished Ivory 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.
