Folklore reads as a warm deep, muted warm gray, shaped by its warm rose undertones. With an LRV of 28, it grounds a space with quiet intensity, working beautifully in dens, master bedrooms, and formal dining rooms. The closest cross-brand match is PPG's Carob Chip, an extremely close match. Vista Paint's Beauport Aubergine is another strong alternative.
