Valspar

Vintage Frame

V142-6

Vintage Frame is a near-black warm charcoal with a faint olive-brown cast. It is seriously dark. Picture-rail trim, doors, built-ins, or exterior accents work here when black feels too flat.

At LRV 7, the color needs clean edges and adequate sheen. Warm whites, oak, or brass bring out its warmer side. On an entire room, it will feel intimate and shadowed.

Vintage Frame 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.
