Color Codes
Manufacturer description
Little Greene Lead Colour 117 is a muted mid-tone grey with a noticeable olive-beige cast, giving it a grounded, gently weathered appearance. It sits away from both stark grey and obvious khaki, with low saturation that keeps the color quiet rather than heavy. In daylight, its soft green-grey undertone is likely to be more apparent, while warmer artificial light can bring out its earthy beige side. Use it on living room or hallway walls where wood flooring, aged brass, linen, and natural stone can reinforce its subdued character. Lead Colour also has enough depth for painted cabinetry or an exterior door, especially when paired with warm off-whites, charcoal details, or deep brown-black accents.
