Valspar

Umbra

8002-20G

Umbra is a deep golden brown with a strong ochre-orange base. It feels rich, not neutral. Cabinets, a study wall, or an exterior door against cream siding can take the color well.

Its value is deep enough to need planned lighting. Walnut will blend with it; pale stone will show it off. In cool northern rooms, the gold may look more muted.

Umbra 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.
