Valspar

Sassy Violet

4004-10A

Valspar Sassy Violet is a pale blue-violet with a soft periwinkle cast. The violet shows clearly. It suits bedrooms, creative offices, or a dressing area that can handle a cool pastel.

In north light, the color may look icier and more blue. Warm white trim keeps it gentler. Pale wood, silver metal, or charcoal accents add weight. Yellow-beige carpet can muddy the lavender impression.
