I’m redorating my hall (after 30 years) and want a deep teal uo to the dado rail. I’ve been hoping to match either of these photos I found browsing - any ideas please?

Would have a look at f&b Inchyra Blue. Possibly you could try Green Smoke for the pic on left, although it’s definitely green rather than teal.

I've got green smoke in my house and it's lighter than those 2 pictures. Lovely though!

Try Farrow and Ball duck green or studio green?

We have Dulux Perfect Peacock in our bedroom which is similar. We have Inchyra Blue in the hallway but it is less teal, although it depends on the light.

Paint and paper library teal looks very close to that colour, I have it and its a very dark teal.

You are right baroness! I meant studio green Blush

Our living room is valspar tribal headress which is a lovely deep teal.

I tried a ton of teal testers on dd wall. We went for the wilko one in the end and it looks amazing!!

Stiffkey blue by F&B is a very rich dark peacock green/blue. Although could this be Vardo?

We've just had several rooms decorated, and two rooms are a very similar colour to this.

We colour matched Little Greene Mid Azure Green for one room, and Valspar Trailblazer for another room, and (I didn't realise at the time) are both extremely similar.

Our decorator found the greens quite difficult to work with. We colour matched them using Johnstones trade paint. He ended up doing 4 coats of the Little Green dupe and 6 coats (yes really!) of the Valspar dupe.

Both gorgeous colours, but he seemed to think Johnstones wasn't that well suited to the deep green colour (we also had a dark navy paint matched in Johnstones. and that only took 2 coats).

Valspar Russian Turquoise, deep teal colour.

We’re looking a deep teal for our living room. Current front runners are Dulux Turquoise Copper, Blue Diamond 2 or Emerald Glade. You can order testers for less than £2 online incl delivery so we’ve painted up A4 tester cards to keep moving them around the room and periodically standing in front of them to go ‘hmm’.

Thanks to everyone... I’ve looked at all these. I’m think I’m going for Mid Azure Green in the ends. Decisions decisions... now to find a pretty feature wallpaper for the little lobby by our front door...

I’ve got Craig & Rose French turquoise in my living room. I went through every shade of teal tester pots before I decided on it.
