As a medium, saturated cool blue, Erte Teal brings a intense energy through its evenly balanced undertones. With an LRV of 53, it adds character to a space without overpowering it, working well in home offices, mudrooms, and powder rooms. Kilz offers Deep Teal as a near-identical match, while Behr's Tropical Sea is also very similar. It pairs beautifully with warm wood tones to offset its coolness, or with silver and chrome for a polished look.
