Manufacturer description

Little Greene Bone China Blue - Pale 182 is a very light, muted gray with a subtle green-blue cast that keeps it from reading stark white. Its low saturation gives walls a soft, chalky appearance, while the slightly cooler undertone is most noticeable in daylight. In warmer artificial light, Bone China Blue - Pale can look gentler and closer to a pale neutral gray. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and softly lit living spaces, especially alongside off-white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and natural linen. Use this color across all four walls when a room needs definition without a strong contrast.
