Santa reads as a soft medium, warm brown, shaped by its rich amber undertones. With an LRV of 53, it balances depth and brightness, making it a strong choice for dining rooms, accent walls, and home offices. The closest match from Valspar is Clay Dusk, an extremely close match. Try it alongside a cool-toned accent to create visual balance, or lean into warmth with natural wood tones.
