Valspar

Quartz Pink

1005-8C

Quartz Pink is a barely rosy off white with a mineral softness. The pink is subtle. It can warm a bath, bedroom, or hallway without announcing itself as pink paint.

The lighter value keeps the space open. It pairs best with cream trim, pale stone, and natural linen. Avoid pairing it with green beige unless the sample proves they cooperate.

Quartz Pink 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.
