Light Bluebell

RAL 140 75 25 Light Bluebell is defined by hue 140, lightness 75, and chroma 25, a warm luminous blue that captures the fresh glow of bluebell meadows and clear spring skies. It is specified for bedroom feature walls, spa and wellness interiors, and decorative ceramic glazes where a calming floral freshness is desired. This bluebell tone works harmoniously with natural wood, linen textiles, and matte brass accents.
