Wow, thank you both for the speedy replies and great suggestions. I’m also trolling British paint company sites, so these are a great place to start.

Check Farrow & Ball paint.

Possibly Farrow & Ball Inchyra Blue? ?

Farrow and Ball paint for sure.

Thanks, Marylee, I thought it might be Inchyra blue, too. Off to the paint store. . .

Though, I look more closely, I'm not so sure. the pic above is greener. Doesn't' look like there's any other F&B color that is close except that one, though.

LittleGreen's Globlin looks close, too: https://www.littlegreene.com/paint/collection/green/goblin

Hi! Posted this on another thread by mistake sorry!

I still think Inchyra is a very strong candidate from the data. H = Hue Angle which plots on the Colour Strategist Colour wheel just past the centre of the
Blue-Green Hue Family at 204°.

Other key information is from under the a and b values.
-a value indicates greenness. +a value indicates redness.
-b value indicates blueness. +b value indicates yellowness.

And so we can see this colour has -a of -6.59 which indicates a goodly amount of green, in fact more green than blue which has a measure of -b = -2.4.

Also looking at a swatch, at least in my home, it does appear to shift more towards a darker blue as the light lessens, but I can see its green aspect in the afternoon is more visible.

If it feels near enough to your original inspiration to be worth a try, I defo would check to see if you care for it in all the different light it’s likely to receive at home. I like it a lot.

Here is another to think about, also from Farrow & Ball, Vardo. This has
3 x more green again, than Inchyra!

It sure is pretty!

Marylee, thanks so much for that analysis. Very helpful!

You simply cannot judge paint colors on monitors and tablets and smartphones. The screens vary wildly in color rendition.

@Marylee H I think you nailed it. It's a deep beautiful color.

Seriously, this one would be hard to get wrong. Not a lot of colors out there to choose from but the few that you have are pretty.

Agree 100% that you can't tell squat looking at color online.

Comparing color data values that define and describe what a color looks like in real life to human eye balls, like Marylee did, is the only way to bridge the gap between online digital color and color appearance in real life.

And she used the correct data values that are intended for that exact application. Which are Lab and LCh.

They're correct because they're the same data that are used to MAKE paint colors; from developing the formula to producing color chips and tools, the same set of data is used.

Which is why you can use Lab and LCh to compare colors and get a factual sense of color attributes without ever seeing physical paint chips.

You would, of course, need to get chips and samples and view them in the space in order to make a color decision. Using the framework of color data values and notations simply helps to get you to that point faster, more efficiently and more confidently.

Completely agree, Lori, thanks for your comment. I'm very appreciative of Marylee's analysis--it really does make things much clearer. Off to get a sample pot to see how it looks in this

room (but not this furniture or rug!).

I love the direction you are going in! Post picture when painted...

Planning this rug, sofa and chairs (one in foreground). Different fabric for sofa

and chairs.

Room is open to this room. . .

Paint the room that gets the most natural light in the green-ish color and the darker room in a lighter variation of the same color.

It looks like Farrow & Ball Inchyra Blue

Hi Dream Sofa - sorry I missed a lot of this, how are you getting along with your colour quest?

I am interested also.

thanks all for the interest. I’m picking up sample of Inchyra Blue this weekend. Also got swatches from Little Greene, and there a couple that look promising there. Will post pics of the sample board after I do it!

Good Luck with the sampling! 🌈
