Hi Micki-
Thanks for asking. The brand is Dunn Edwards. Color is very contextual and mutable. The best solution is to always get a bunch of paint chips and look at them in the context of the room (surrounding floor and window coverings, upholstery, artwork etc.) and look at their mutability (different times of day, room lighting etc). Make two piles: "No" and "Maybe" Take the maybes and pick three favorites. Buy a quart of your three favs and paint some on the wall. Live with it for a few days and you will know for sure which is the best color for you and your room.
