Vintage Chartreuse

8001-27G

Vintage Chartreuse is a deep yellow green, more antique glass than fresh lime. That yellow-green depth suits old wood shelves and blackened hardware. Use it in a defined spot, such as a pantry, powder room vanity, mudroom cabinet, or vintage furniture piece.

At LRV 33, its depth keeps the color grounded. Warm wood and black metal suit it. Stark white can make the chartreuse look sharper than expected.

Vintage Chartreuse 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.
