Benjamin Moore

Amethyst Shadow

1441 / CC-930

Amethyst Shadow by Benjamin Moore is a dark violet-gray with an LRV of 18.29, making it a low-reflectance color that absorbs a significant amount of light. The gray undertone tempers the violet, so it reads more as a muted, dusty purple than a vivid one. It is well suited to accent walls, bedrooms, and smaller rooms where a darker envelope effect is intended.

Benjamin Moore's Stonington Gray provides a lighter neutral counterpoint, Chantilly Lace works for crisp white trim, and Hunter Green, Mauve Mist, or Venetian Pink each pair naturally without competing for attention.
