Valspar

Poseidon's Castle

V066-5

Poseidon's Castle is a saturated teal that leans green, more deep pool water than navy. Reserve it with intention. A powder room, island base, or glazed front door can handle its weight better than a long dark hallway.

With LRV 15, the color absorbs light and rewards gloss or satin. Marble, walnut, and warm metal hardware keep it grown up.
