Sprig of Sage

8004-28D

Sprig of Sage is a muted gray-olive with a warm khaki base. It feels mature. Offices, hallways, or bedrooms are good places when sage should act like a neutral.

Low light may pull it brown. Sunlight brings out the green more clearly. Cream trim, black metal, or natural linen all suit it. Avoid very cool whites, which can muddy the undertone.
