Color Codes
Manufacturer description
Little Greene Slaked Lime - Dark 151 is a muted, mid-tone neutral with a soft beige base and noticeable grey-khaki undertones. Its subdued saturation keeps it from reading overly creamy or yellow, giving walls a gently weathered, mineral-like appearance. In bright daylight, this shade can appear lighter and more stone-like, while lower or warmer light brings out its earthy beige character. Use Slaked Lime - Dark on living room, hallway, or bedroom walls where a grounded neutral is wanted without the starkness of pale grey. It pairs well with off-white trim, natural oak, aged brass, linen upholstery, and deeper brown or olive accents.
