Looks like magnolia

Looks like you're right, thanks. Other input welcome though
>>

The anon who said magnolia here, although magnolia is far more common, it might also be "natural hessian", it looks slightly more like 'natural hessian', although based on probability it's more likely magnolia.

>camera not calibrated
>screens not calibrated

your question can not be answered

it's the black/blue vs white/gold dress phenomenon

It never was a fucking phenomenon, it was a joke to make idiots look at some stupid dress.

uhm, what is an american wedding alex?

How the fuck can you people even tell? It just looks like white to me.
>>
>>963482
The dress thing had nothing to do with screen calibration. No one's monitor is bad enough to make blue look like gold. It was all just a matter of perception, this is why you got two people looking at the same screen and see two different things.

You are right though, having a photo from some anons mobile phone and displayed on another anons random ass monitor means that getting an accurate guess at what colour it is is impossible.

>>963419
Get a paint chip or sample of whatever it is and take it to your local paint store, they can scan it in for you and get a much better opinion on what colour it is than random people on /diy/

Could be eggshell or some other off white. Painter for 26 years, but also am starting to lose my touch on paint color so perhaps not. Good luck mate.

Post a pic with a few basic reference colours, like a colour calibration test page from a laser printer, that'd help a whole bunch
