A Small Teal Family That Spans Dark to Pale
Annie Sloan's teal family holds three colors that couldn't be more different in depth. Aubusson Blue (#314850, LRV 6) is a deep, dense blue-teal despite its name, dark enough to function almost like a navy in a room. Provence (#79A29A, LRV 32), one of the brand's longtime favorites, is a genuine mid-tone teal-green, soft and Mediterranean in feel. Svenska Blue (#A4BEB7, LRV 48), the palest of the three, reads as a gentle, chalky teal-gray rather than a saturated color at all.
That 42-point LRV spread, from 6 to 48, means this small family can do the work of a much larger one: a dark anchor, a mid-tone workhorse, and a pale, easy neutral-adjacent color, all under one loose "teal" umbrella.
Furniture Pairings for Each Teal
Provence is the most-used of the three for whole-piece furniture — a dresser, a hutch, a kitchen island — because its balanced mid-tone works in nearly any room without overwhelming it, and its slightly grayed quality keeps it from reading as a bold, trendy color that dates quickly. Svenska Blue functions almost like a soft neutral, useful for larger case pieces or paired with white or Old Ochre for a gentle, coastal-leaning look.
Aubusson Blue, being this dark, works best as a deliberate anchor: a single dramatic chair, a front door, or cabinetry meant to contrast against lighter surroundings. Its depth also makes it a strong base coat for a distressed piece, with Svenska Blue or a neutral dry-brushed over the top for texture and contrast.
Wax Over These Three Colors
Dark wax deepens Provence into a richer, more moody teal-green that suits older or more traditional furniture styles, and it does similar work on Svenska Blue, pulling it toward a soft slate rather than staying pale and airy. On Aubusson Blue, dark wax has a more limited visible effect given how dark the base color already is, similar to Napoleonic Blue in the blue family.
For pieces that see real daily use — a kitchen island in Provence, say — lacquer is the more durable choice, holding both color and sheen more consistently over time than a waxed finish.
Getting a Teal Like This on Your Walls
None of these three are part of Annie Sloan's separate Wall Paint line. If you fall for Provence on a piece of furniture and want the same color echoed on the surrounding wall, any paint store can color-match a chip into a standard wall-paint formula — teals and teal-adjacent grays like Svenska Blue are generally easier to match well than a saturated color like Aubusson Blue.
As always, get an actual sample pot and test it on your wall before committing a full room, since teal in particular can shift toward blue or green depending on the room's light and the surrounding colors.
The Questions Everyone Asks
how many teal colors does annie sloan have?
Three: Aubusson Blue, Provence, and Svenska Blue. They span a wide range despite the small count, from Aubusson Blue's deep, dense near-navy to Svenska Blue's pale, chalky teal-gray, with Provence sitting as a balanced mid-tone in between.
why is aubusson blue in the teal family if it looks so dark?
At LRV 6, Aubusson Blue is genuinely dark and can read almost like a navy in a dim room, but its underlying hue carries enough green-blue balance to place it in the teal family by color measurement rather than the pure blue family.
is provence a popular annie sloan color?
Yes, it's one of the brand's longtime favorites, a soft, Mediterranean mid-tone teal-green (LRV 32) that works well on kitchen islands, dressers, and hutches without overwhelming a room. It's often the first teal people reach for in the range.
what does svenska blue look like on furniture?
Svenska Blue (LRV 48) is the palest of the three teals, reading as a gentle, chalky teal-gray rather than a saturated color. It works almost like a soft neutral and pairs well with white or warm neutrals like Old Ochre for a coastal-leaning look.
can i match provence or svenska blue to a wall paint?
Yes, any paint store can color-match either one into a standard wall-paint formula from a sample chip. Both are generally straightforward to match compared to a more saturated color like Aubusson Blue, but test a sample on your wall first since light shifts teal noticeably.
