Celtic Blue nods to the woad-dyed war paint that Julius Caesar described on ancient Britons before battle. Woad, a mustard-family plant, gives a vivid mid blue, and the Celtic Blue color captures that punchy, saturated tone. Use it as an accent where you want energy, like a front door or a feature wall.
