Valspar

Wool Coat

1002-10A

Wool Coat is a medium taupe with a warm brown base and a slightly rosy cast. It has texture visually. Let it support dens or on shelving where gray feels too cold.

The color needs trim contrast because it sits in a deeper neutral range. Pair with black hardware or aged bronze. In rooms with red oak, the warm undertone can become stronger.

Wool Coat 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.
