What Color Is Leprechaun Green, Really?
Leprechaun Green reads as a cool green tone — light — bounces daylight without going clinical. The notes below cover how Benjamin Moore 557 behaves in different light and the closest matches at competing US brands.
Best Rooms and Uses for Leprechaun Green
Leprechaun Green is an easy whole-room color for living spaces and bedrooms, and light enough to carry onto trim or a ceiling if you want a soft, seamless look. Greens bridge indoors and out, so they suit living rooms, kitchens and sunrooms.
How Lighting Changes Leprechaun Green
At LRV 59, Leprechaun Green is a light color that bounces daylight around a room without tipping into stark white. Its green undertone is the part to watch: it gets picked up by whatever sits next to it, so test it against your trim, floor and the room's main light before committing. It holds its undertone in most exposures, which is what makes light shades like this so forgiving room to room.
Most complaints about Leprechaun Green are a light mismatch. Upload a photo of your actual room and see it on your walls — then ask for the same wall in north light or evening lamps before you buy a single sample.
