Benjamin Moore

Angel's Trumpet

278

Angel's Trumpet by Benjamin Moore is a medium gold with a noticeable green undertone that shifts it away from a straightforward yellow. Its LRV of 48.44 places it in the mid-range for light reflectance, so it holds its own in well-lit rooms without appearing too dark. Dining rooms and entryways are common applications where this kind of warm, grounded tone fits.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Soft Chamois, Hale Navy, Essex Green, and Windham Cream, supporting both tonal and contrasting schemes.

Angel's Trumpet in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
