Colonial Verdigris

At first glance, Colonial Verdigris belongs to the green family; in a room, light and context can make it far more elusive. Its LRV of 8.8 gives it real visual weight, allowing the color to hold a wall rather than simply recede from view. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.
