What Color Is Deep Ravine Green, Really?
Deep Ravine Green reads as a warm yellow tone — mid-tone — versatile but shifts visibly with light. The notes below cover how Glidden 60YY 28/139 behaves in different light and the closest matches at competing US brands.
Best Rooms and Uses for Deep Ravine Green
Deep Ravine Green is versatile enough for full rooms but has enough depth to anchor a space, so it suits living rooms, bedrooms and cabinetry alike. Greige-leaning neutrals like this are the safe whole-home choice when you want warmth without committing to a color.
How Lighting Changes Deep Ravine Green
Deep Ravine Green sits in the mid-range at LRV 28, so it shifts visibly through the day — lighter and more open in morning light, deeper and moodier after dark. Its yellow 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. South-facing rooms will pull it lighter and warmer, while north light cools it down.
Most complaints about Deep Ravine 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.
