Rare Orchid
PPG Rare Orchid (PPG1169-2) carries the measured structure of its color data and the less predictable beauty of paint in a finished space. With an LRV of 72, it sits on the light-reflective side of the palette and can feel especially open in generous daylight. The manufacturer's description below offers one reading; the room imagery leaves space for your own.
