Valspar

Star Magnolia

V157

Star Magnolia is a bright warm white with a soft cream base. It feels gentle, not stark. Use it on walls, trim, or ceilings when the home has warm floors and traditional finishes.

In full sun, it keeps a soft glow. Against cool gray tile, the cream becomes more obvious. Linen or pale oak suits it well. Compare it beside existing white paint before committing.

Star Magnolia 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.
