Valspar

Spun Gold

3001-5C

Spun Gold is a warm golden peach with a soft honey-orange base. The honey-orange base brings warmth fast in rooms with daylight. The color can energize a breakfast nook, mudroom, or front door without becoming pure yellow.

On full walls, the warmth will spread quickly, especially in afternoon sun. Cream trim keeps it friendly. Dark green or black accents add needed balance. Test beside oak so the gold does not blend into the floor.

Spun Gold 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.
