Valspar

Stone Age

M102

Stone Age is medium gray, warmed by a taupe-stone base. The taupe-stone base gives hallways more weight than pale greige. Hallways, offices, or family rooms suit it when a neutral needs more weight than pale greige.

In shade, it grows deeper and slightly brown. Bright daylight keeps it cleaner. Choose off-white trim and textured fabrics. Check it beside gray flooring, since near matches can look accidentally mismatched.

Stone Age 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.
