Valspar

Ripe Mulberry

V076-6

Ripe Mulberry is a dark muted plum with a brown violet base. It feels velvety. Let it work for a small dining room, study, or cabinet finish where rich color has room to breathe.

The very low value needs layered lamps. For Ripe Mulberry, warm white plus brass. Cool gray upholstery may make it look more somber. Keep art frames bright.
