Benjamin Moore

Abbey Brown

1225

Abbey Brown by Benjamin Moore is a deep brown with noticeable orange undertones that push it toward a warm, earthy range. With an LRV of 12.3, it absorbs most light and reads dark enough to serve as an accent wall, exterior door, or cabinet color rather than full-room coverage. The orange in the base means it holds warmth under both natural and incandescent light.

It pairs with White Dove or Classic Gray for trim contrast, and Soft Pumpkin or Golden Straw can extend the warm palette. Newburyport Blue offers a cooler counterpoint.
