Teal is the in-between blue-green that reads moody, marine, or jewel-tone depending on which side of the family you pick. Benjamin Moore named Aegean Teal their 2021 Color of the Year and kicked off a wave of designer rooms in soft, slightly desaturated teals — a quieter alternative to navy that pairs especially well with brass, oak, and warm whites.

About Glidden teal paint colors
What Glidden Teals Actually Look Like
Glidden's teal family sits in that satisfying space between blue and green, and the deck covers it well. Aqua Sky is the lightest, an airy pale aqua that reads almost like a tinted white, while Washed Teal softens into a gentle blue-green. Kingston Aqua is a clearer mid-tone teal with a coastal feel.
The deeper picks carry the drama. Calming Green Waters reads as a muted gray-teal, Granite Falls leans cooler and bluer, Nassau Night deepens into a rich peacock teal, and Ship's Harbor anchors the family as a deep slate teal near navy. These greenish-blues bring a calm, watery character that suits bathrooms, powder rooms, and accent walls, which is why teal stays a popular pick on the mass-retail shelf.
How To Choose A Glidden Teal
This family runs from pale aqua in the high 70s down to deep slate teal in single digits, so LRV sets the intensity. For a light, spa-like wall, choose Aqua Sky or Washed Teal high in the range. For a richer, jewel-tone room, drop into Nassau Night or Ship's Harbor at the deep end. Kingston Aqua sits in the middle for a clear, true teal.
The key question with teal is whether it leans green or blue. Calming Green Waters tips green-gray, while Granite Falls tips bluer, so check your pick against the tile, counter, or fixtures it has to live with. Teal reads strongest in a bathroom's bright light, so sample on the wall first. Glidden mixes all of these at the paint desk in your chosen line.
Glidden teal paint — frequently asked questions
What is a good light Glidden teal for a bathroom?+
Aqua Sky near LRV 77 is an airy pale aqua that reads almost like a tinted white, perfect for a light, spa-like bathroom. Washed Teal is a slightly deeper soft blue-green if you want a touch more color.
Does Glidden have a deep peacock teal?+
Yes. Nassau Night is a rich peacock teal, and Ship's Harbor anchors the family even deeper as a slate teal near navy. Both make dramatic accent walls and pair well with brass fixtures and warm wood.
Does this Glidden teal lean blue or green?+
It depends on the pick. Calming Green Waters tips toward green-gray, while Granite Falls leans bluer. Always sample teal on the wall next to your tile or counters, since the green-versus-blue balance shifts a lot under different light.
