Benjamin Moore

Abingdon Putty

HC-99

Abingdon Putty by Benjamin Moore is a warm buff with a faint green undertone that stops it from leaning too yellow. With an LRV of 59.99, it falls in the mid-light range and works as a wall color in living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms where a neutral with slight warmth is needed. The green trace becomes more apparent next to cooler whites and less visible alongside other warm neutrals.

Dove Wing and Classic Gray complement it closely, while Wythe Blue and Soft Fern bring out its green side. Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal work for contrast on trim.
