Valspar

Spanish Tile

1010-5

Spanish Tile is a very dark oxblood red with a brown-black base. It has major weight. At LRV 4, use it where drama is the goal: doors, paneling, a powder room, or exterior accents.

On a small chip, the red may look clearer than it will on a wall. Warm lamps bring back the tile-like color. Pair with limestone or creamy plaster. Matte finishes can make it look heavy.

Spanish Tile 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.
