Benjamin Moore

Ancient Ivory

935 / AF-30, OC-133

Benjamin Moore Ancient Ivory is a warm white with slight yellow-green undertones that keep it from reading as stark or cold. With an LRV of 80.45 it reflects a large amount of light, making it practical for full-room applications including ceilings, trim, and walls in smaller spaces. The warmth is subtle enough that it holds up well next to cooler tones.

It works within a Benjamin Moore palette alongside White Dove, Ballet White, and Swiss Coffee for a tonal white scheme, and can be grounded by deeper options like Kendall Charcoal or Palladian Blue.

Ancient Ivory in Different Light
