Valspar

Sassy Green

6009-10

Valspar Sassy Green is a sharp olive-lime with a golden base. The yellow-green base needs quiet materials around it. This color fits best as an accent on furniture, a pantry door, or a small garden room rather than a default neutral.

In daylight, the yellow note becomes obvious. Warm white, charcoal, or natural cane support the color well. Use it sparingly near busy tile because the color already carries plenty of personality.

Sassy Green 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.
