These walls are "faux finished" to resemble wall paper. We did a light grey base coat, and then my finisher followed with a wash in an off-white color to achieve the effect. Unfortunately, I don't remember either of the colors used. The end result was great -- subtle and very elegant... not that you can see any of that in this photo!
